Bombard the Headquarters!: Linda Jaivin in conversation with Echo Hui

Linda Jaivin is joined by Echo Hui to discuss her new book Bombard the Headquarters!: The cultural revolution in China, a riveting account of a extraordinary and turbulent period in recent Chinese history.

In 1966, with the words ‘Bombard the Headquarters!’ Mao Zedong unleashed the full, violent force of a movement that he called the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.

Bombard the Headquarters! is not just Mao’s story. It’s the unforgettable stories of countless individuals, mass manias, sacred mangos and spectacular falls from grace.
