from the book jacket of The Barefoot
Lawyer
"It was like a scene out of a thriller: one morning in
April 2012, China's most famous political activist-a blind, self-taught
lawyer-climbed over the wall of his heavily guarded home and escaped. For days,
his whereabouts remained unknown; after he turned up at the American embassy in
Beijing, a furious round of high-level negotiations finally led to his release
and a new life in the United States."
