Wenge – Destroy the Old! is larger than life and crazier than imagination, but incredibly this novel is based on actual events! Wonderful characters, fantastic story-telling; literally impossible to put down – Alice Pickard, author

I was totally blown-away by Wenge – Destroy the Old! – Mary Parks, author

Amazing! – Ryan Gray, author

May 25, 1966 and Peking University is abuzz. First year student Yang Fan follows the crowd to see a big-character poster denouncing those not supporting the Cultural Revolution. Fan, the daughter of a revolutionary hero, gets swept up in Chairman Mao's Cultural Revolution as she struggles counterrevolutionaries, targets revisionists in their homes, and attacks Confucianism as the worst of the four olds. But like all Red Guards, protagonist becomes victim as the tables are turned on Fan; leaving her to ponder what she did and what might have been.
