 Book review by JD
Li returned to his country in 1921, joined the Chinese Communist Party almost as soon as it was formed, and spent the rest of his life a devout Party member.
Its stated purpose was for Li to “study and reeducate himself.” Li had been found guilty of a heresy, a heresy that was actually referred to as “Li Lisan-ism,” and which basically consisted of having been insufficiently respectful to Stalin.
Li lived as freely and comfortably as anyone could in that time and place, and in 1936 married Elizabeth Kishkin, then a young editor at a Party publishing house.

Entre ellas se destaca la de Li Lisan, principal dirigente del comunismo chino en las primeras décadas del siglo hasta su caída en desgracia por sus diferencias con el estalinismo.
En los episodios de su vida de revolucionario, la historia novelada alcanza mayor interés: la primera marcha, la masacre de Shanghai de 1927 y el destino de los primeros cuadros políticos chinos en la Unión Soviética y bajo el maoísmo.
La biografía de Li Lisan es un motivo válido para leer este libro: una vida que condensa las aspiraciones revolucionarias y las claudicaciones, finalmente inútiles, para garantizarse la supervivencia.
