Tombstone

In "Tombstone," journalist Yang Jisheng delivers a definitive account of China's Great Famine, which resulted in the tragic deaths of an estimated 36 million people during the Great Leap Forward. Drawing on two decades of research and access to various sources, he explores the underlying causes of this catastrophe, attributing the devastation to the failures of China's totalitarian regime rather than natural disasters. The narrative serves as both a poignant testament to the inhumanity experienced during this dark chapter and a challenge to the historical amnesia enforced by those in power.
