About this listen

Stephen’s comfortable but empty existence is transformed by an unexpected visitor from his past. Forced to face up to the consequences of a love he had long suppressed, he is drawn back to his time teaching in Beijing, China, during the spring of 1989. There he toyed with the people and events associated with the pro-democracy movement only in search of cheap adventure. Despite his naivety, he was drawn inexorably towards both. Though his travels took him from the Great Wall to the plains of Inner Mongolia, there was no escaping the pull of Tiananmen Square on the night of 4th June.
