Hardback. Condición: Good. In eyewitness testimonies and hundreds of remarkable photographs, The Battle for People's Park commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of one of the most searing conflicts that closed out the tumultuous 1960s."Excellent . . . reads like a gut punch." ?The GuardianIn April 1969, a few Berkeley activists planted the first tree on a University of California-owned, abandoned city block on Telegraph Avenue. Hundreds of people from all over the city helped build the park as an expression of a politics of joy. The University was appalled, and warned that unauthorized use of the land would not be tolerated; and on May 15, which would soon be known as Bloody Thursday, a violent struggle erupted, involving thousands of people.Hundreds were arrested, martial law was declared, and the National Guard was ordered by then-Governor Ronald Reagan to crush the uprising and to occupy the entire city. The police fired shotguns against unarmed students. A military helicopter gassed the campus indiscriminately, causing schoolchildren miles away to vomit. One man died from his wounds.

Paperback. Condición: Good. If a Mountain Lion Could Sing stands as the first major English translation of poems written by China's greatest lyric poet, Xin Qiji.Red Pine gathers and translates over 100 poems by China's greatest lyric poet, Xin Qiji, in his latest bilingual collection, If a Mountain Lion Could Sing. Visiting the very places where Xin composed his stanzas--the cassia trees of the Wu River, houseboats along the Yangzi, mountain monasteries--and paying respects at the poet's grave, Red Pine makes a spiritual and physical exercise of translation. In his skilled hands, we see the unique, multifaceted nature of Xin unfold--rebel warrior, patriot, human. Political themes and ideas of intimacy cross paths, moving between the voices of statesman and lover. Written over 800 years ago, and to melodies since lost, Xin's verses still leap across centuries to relay the universal concepts of solitude, duty, youth, aging, and nostalgia. Though true mirrors are hard to come by, Xin's poems serve as haunting reflections of a man whose voice of heroic abandon still resonates today.…
