Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Peter Popham's major new biography of Aung San Suu Kyi draws upon previously untapped testimony and fresh revelations to tell the story of a woman whose bravery and determination have captivated people around the globe. Celebrated today as one of the world's greatest exponents of non-violent political defiance since Mahatma Gandhi, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize only four years after her first experience of politics. In April 1988, Suu Kyi returned from Britain to Burma to nurse her sick mother but, within six months, found herself the unchallenged leader of the largest popular revolt in the history of Burma. When the party she co-founded won a landslide victory in Burma's first free elections for thirty years, she was already under house arrest and barred from taking office by the military junta. Since then, 'The Lady' has set about transforming her country ethically as well as politically, displaying dazzling courage in the process. Under house arrest for 15 of the previous 20 years, she has come close to being killed by her political enemies and her commitment to peaceful revolution has come at extreme personal cost. In November 2010, after fraudulent elections in which she played no part, Suu Kyi was again freed. She was greeted by ecstatic crowds but only time will tell what role this remarkable woman will have in the future of her country. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. 464 pages. cover worn and creasedThe definitive biography of Aung San Suu Kyi, Burma's pro-democracy leader. Until she was released in November 2010, Aung San Suu Kyi had been under house a rrest in Burma for fourteen of the previous twenty years. She was already confin ed to her home when the party she co-founded and led, the National League for De mocracy, won a landslide victory in a general election in 1990. The result was n ever acknowledged by the military regime in power for many decades. Yet, headlin e, tragic events have happened in Burma in recent years: the brutally put down u prising of the monks and nuns in 2007, the devastation left by Cyclone Nargis in 2008, and then Aung San Suu Kyi's trial following the entry into her home of an American intruder who swam across a lake to reach her. Since then there have be en sham elections held in November 2010, and 'Daw Suu' (as the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate is known) was released into an uneasy stand off with the junta. Prais ed all over the world for her martyrdom, a matchless emblem of Buddhist fortitud e and good humour to her people, there is no public figure in the world today wh o can compare to her. Yet no book has yet been written that does justice to her extraordinary story: brought up mostly in India, settled in North Oxford with he r English scholar husband and two sons, called back to Burma to look after her s ick mother, then caught up in a revolutionary uprising for which she became lead er, yet trapped inside the country -- never to see her husband again. The Lady and the Peacock is the first, accessible biography of Aung San Suu Kyi. It will become the definitive work on this extraordinary woman, of whom Archbishop Desmo nd Tutu has said: Aung San Suu Kyi is a remarkable and courageous human being. L.…
