Features: The 'Golden Triangle,' adjacent to the border of Yunnan, is world-famous for its drug trade. Born naturally timid, Deng Xian braves danger and death, interviewing a diverse range of people from major drug lords to small-time drug dealers, from Kuomintang veterans to rural youth sent down during the Cultural Revolution. The bloody struggle between rival gangs, the thrilling clashes among the youth sent down, and the irresistible yearning for home all leave readers both stunned and moved to tears. This book won the third leg championship of the "Contemporary" Literary Rally.
