Publisher's Summary
This narration of Chi Him Chiu's book, Recollections of an Overseas Chinese, by Ian Brinkley, recounts the story of our hero, Huai Ren, and his friends, as they find themselves swept through southeast Asia in the turbulent times surrounding the Chinese Cultural Revolution and World War II.
The story quickly moves through adventures spanning Singapore, Johor, Malaya, Kuching, Sarawak, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and finally, the United States. Through this personal account of the infamous years of the Japanese occupation, the post-war student unrest in Malaysia, the struggle between the Sarawak Communist Party and the British colonial government, the ebb and flow of the Sarawak Communist Movement, the Anti-rightist Movement of China, and a host of other movements in that historical period, one begins to understand the pangs and solace they stir in the heart of the author.
