Waiting to Be Arrested at Night: A Uyghur Poet's Memoir of China's Genocide by Tahir Hamut Izgil

5.0

Heartbreaking, but a must-read. A memoir about how one negotiates their way through and survive the Chinese government’s genocide of Muslim Uyghurs in Xinjiang Province.

This is a deeply personal account about resilience and an eye-opening exposé on one of the world’s most urgent humanitarian crises, and a harrowing tale of a family’s escape from genocide.
