Over the course of 66 days in 1967, more than 9,000 Chinese "class enemies" - including young children and the elderly - were murdered in Dao, a county in the Hunan province. Commonly known as the Daoxian massacre, the killings were one of the many acts of mass violence and radicalism that rocked China during the Cultural Revolution. However, in spite of the scope and brutality of the killings, there are few detailed accounts of what took place on the ground.

Years after the massacre, writer and editor Tan Hecheng was sent to Dao to report on the official investigation into the killings. Unable to publish his findings in China, in The Killing Wind he provides a first-hand investigation of the atrocities, exploring how and why the massacre took place. Tan blends his research with the recollections of survivors, offering a vivid account of the massacre and its aftermath. Dispelling much of Mao Zedong's mythos of peasant revolution, Tan reveals that the killings were unprovoked, and carried out with stomach-churning brutality. Far from the tyrannical landlords depicted in revolutionary propaganda, most of the victims were hard-working, peaceful people who were technically considered part of the rural middle class. Other victims were peasants themselves, targeted because they had offended their killers in political or financial disputes.

More than a catalog of horrors, Tan also offers a poignant meditation on memory, moral culpability, and the failure of the Chinese government to come to terms with the crimes of the Maoist era. By painting a detailed portrait of the massacres, The Killing Wind makes a broader argument about the long term consequences of one of the twentieth century's greatest human tragedies. A compelling testament to the victims and survivors of the Daoxian massacre, The Killing Wind is a monument to historical truth, one that fills an immense gap in our understanding of Mao, the Cultural Revolution, and the status of truth in contemporary China.

读的中文版,读了大概三分之一,实在是读不下去了。一来太悲惨,二来数据多的要命。真希望这种事是假的,也不要再发生。

读是读完了,从千言万语到无言以对。很难注入真实感,这是现实,但是是别处的现实,52年足够让亲历者和看客恍惚如噩梦一场。

承认自己心理承受能力真的扛不住这本书,有些地方实在是不敢细读……用口述史和细密的数据去重塑一个4509人的坟场,一场以阶级斗争之旗制造分裂、恐慌、纵容罪恶的大屠杀,其实是在直面一个问题:If you loved the Communist Party, would the party kill you?
