Tiananmen 1989: Our Shattered Hopes by Adrien Gombeaud, Lun Zhang

4.0

Really dense but solid graphic novel that delves more into the details of what immediately led up to June 4, 1989 in Beijing and the aftermath. Lun Zhang, having lived through it, presents this moment in recent history through a documentary storytelling lens, zooming in and out from the intimacies of the China democracy movement to what was happening within the Party. I recommend, especially if you want to know more of the details of the movement in Tiananmen Square.
