Produktbeschreibung
From acclaimed journalist Melissa Chan and esteemed activist artist Badiucao comes a near-future dystopian graphic novel that explores technology, authoritarian government, and the lengths that one will go to in the fight for freedom. Three idealistic youths, forever transformed by the real-world protests in Hong Kong in 2019, develop diverging beliefs about how to best fight against techno-authoritarian China. As conflict escalates and a nuclear disaster looms, is working with an increasingly fascist and non-democratic United States the answer? Andy, Maggie, and Olivia travel different paths toward transformative change, each confronting to what extent they will fight for freedom, and who they will become in doing so. A powerful and important book about global totalitarian futures, and the costs of resistance.
Autorenporträt
Badiucao is a Chinese Australian artist, activist, and political provocateur. One of the most popular and prolific creatives from China, he confronts a variety of social and political issues in his work, often using satire to tackle censorship, authoritarianism, and capitalism. For years, he operated anonymously and was dubbed "China's Banksy". He has exhibited in the US, Australia, and throughout Europe. He has been interviewed by The Washington Post, The Guardian, Time, CNN, NBC, and others. The New York Times and CBS News's 60 Minutes profiled him. In 2020, Badiucao won the Human Rights Foundation's Václav Havel International Prize for Creative Dissent. Badiucao currently lives in exile in Australia. This is his debut graphic novel. Melissa Chan is an Emmy-nominated Hong Kong and Taiwanese American foreign correspondent based between Los Angeles and Berlin. She was previously posted in China until she became the first journalist in more than a decade to be expelled by the Chinese authorities in 2012. She has written for The New York Times where she was nominated for a Loeb Award--business journalism's highest honor--and The Atlantic, The Washington Post, Time, The Guardian, and more. She appears regularly on VICE News Tonight and Al Jazeera's Fault Lines. Melissa received a B.A. in history at Yale University and a M.S. in comparative politics at the London School of Economics.
