In \u003ci\u003eBanished to the Great Northern Wilderness, \u003c\/i\u003e Ning Wang draws on labour farm archives and other newly uncovered Chinese-language sources, including an interview with a camp guard, to provide a remarkable look at the suffering and complex psychological world of intellectuals banished to China's remote north. Wang's use of grassroots sources challenges our perception of the intellectual as a renegade martyr - revealing how exiles often denounced one another and, for self-preservation, declared allegiance to the state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ning Wang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774832231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774832236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.00d","brand":"Ning Wang","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086850666751,"sku":"9780774832236","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_934ed236-59c5-42e8-8e5d-a91c5154c347.jpg?v=1769096951","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/banished-to-the-great-northern-ning-wang-9780774832236","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
