Illustrated softcover/NF; w/faint creasing to lower front corner tip. Taiwan born, Californian Belle Yang (1960 -) is an artist, author, graphic novelist and children's book writer. After graduation from Univ.of CA, Santa Cruz, she spent 3 years in Beijing, China to be present during the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests.
