Synopsis of Down the Yangtze

En este libro, Paul Theroux relata su viaje por el río Yangtze en 1979, en una época en la que los maoístas de línea dura estaban en el poder. Theroux observa las ciudades, los acantilados, los rápidos, los santuarios y la gente de China, así como la relación entre sus compañeros de viaje, los turistas estadounidenses y los chinos. Concluye que en este país, las cosas quizás nunca mejoren más de lo que ya están, y lo ve como un país que puede contener pistas sobre el posible futuro de la humanidad. Originalmente publicado como 'Sailing through China' en 1983.
