Features: This is one of the most complete personal archives found among the people in contemporary China, and its research value is self-evident. Faced with these six thick volumes of original texts that record his own hardships through political turmoil, how could Mr. Du Gao speak? Page after page of confessions, self-criticisms, and guilty pleas; page after page of denunciations, criticisms, and labor re-education records—twenty-four years of youth and life flowed away in these archives. Confronting the past, how could one bear it? It is rare that Mr. Du Gao, with a generous heart and straightforward writing style, recounts those unbearable past people and events, interpreting this "private secret" that has now become a "cultural relic" for both the present and future generations. His detailed life account, sharp self-examination, and clear historical awareness allow us to see the historical fate of a generation of intellectuals in China and the sacrifices they made in our ancient nation's democratic progress. And all of this was for tomorrow.
