What is The poems of Mao Zedong : translations, introduction, and notes by Willis Barnstone about?

Mao Zedong, leader of the revolution and absolute chairman of the People's Republic of China, was also a calligrapher and a poet of extraordinary grace and eloquent simplicity. The poems in this beautiful edition (from the 1963 Beijing edition), translated and introduced by Willis Barnstone, are expressions of decades of struggle, the painful loss of his first wife, his hope for a new China, and his ultimate victory over the Nationalist forces. Willis Barnstone's introduction, his short biography of Mao and brief history of the revolution, and his notes on Chinese versification all combine to enrich the Western reader's understanding of Mao's poetry. ** General Poetry Cover 1 Contents 11 1: Introduction 14 2: The Poems 42 Changsha 44 Tower of the Yellow Crane 48 Jinggang Mountain 50 Warlords 52 Ninth Day of the Ninth Moon 54 New Year’s Day 56 On the Road to Ji’an 58 Tingzhou to Changsha 60 First Siege 62 Second Siege 64 Region of the Great Pines 66 Huichang 68 Loushan Pass 70 Three Songs 72 The Long March 76 Kunlun Mountain 78 Liupan the Mountain of Six Circles 82 Snow 84 Capture of Nanjing 88 Poem for Liu Yazi (1949) 90 Poem for Liu Yazi (1950) 92 Beidaihe 94 Swimming 96 The Gods
