In a country where economic transformation has reshaped every aspect of life, what happens to those who refuse to follow the path set for them?
In this FT, NYT and Sunday Times book of the year, Yuan Yang shares the gripping, personal stories of four Chinese women navigating ambition, activism, and survival. From June, who fights for an education over a life of pig farming, to Sam, an activist forced into hiding, 
Private Revolutions
 is a powerful look at the quiet defiance shaping China’s future.
Yang will be in conversation with journalist and broadcaster Cindy Yu, and together will explore how individual resistance collides with state power, and what these women’s struggles reveal about modern China. Join us for an intimate and urgent conversation about resilience, freedom, and the price of standing up for yourself in an era of rapid change.
