On 1 October 1999, the People's Republic of China turns fifty. It has been a rocky ride, at times euphoric, at times tragic. In light of the place China now occupies on the world stage, this birthday will draw attention from around the world. China Remembers commemorates the PRC's journey to date through thirty interviews, presenting one of the most honest, varied, and compelling accounts of the country ever compiled.
