Journey to the land of the Uyghurs
Sylvie Lasserre
A Turkic-speaking, Muslim minority living in western China, the Uighurs have for years suffered unprecedented repression by the Chinese government, which claims to be fighting terrorism. Today, more than three million of them are detained in camps, enduring torture and forced labor. A Journey to the Land of the Uyghurs traces the situation in Xinjiang from 1997 to the present day, focusing on the culture and history of this people. It analyzes the inevitable escalation of violence toward a veritable Orwellian hell, and highlights China's methods for muzzling this people: forced assimilation, destroyed heritage, discrimination in employment, bans on practicing their religion, and confiscation of passports. The first in France to denounce the situation in 2007, the author wrote her book following a clandestine investigation in East Turkestan. This new, updated edition, illustrated with photographs, is accompanied by recent testimonies that reveal the hell of the Chinese camps.
