Böcker av Stephen Fitzgerald

"The Best Haiku annual anthology is a creative and concise collection of winning writers from around the world who submitted their poetry to be judged by a panel of four Haiku Crush ( HaikuCrush.com ) judges. The traditional and modern haiku in this collection were chosen by the judges for their originality in capturing observations and personal experiences -- and their ability to entertain, inspire, and to sometimes reveal the less obvious moments in life." -- Stephen FitzGerald, editor

Originally published in 1972, this is a detailed examination of the policy of the People's Republic of China towards the overseas Chinese.

Modern Australia was in part defined by its early embrace of China, epitomised by the far-sighted establishment of an embassy in Beijing in the 1970s by Gough Whitlam. Stephen FitzGerald's own story is interwoven with the wider one of this dramatic change in Australia's history, as diplomat, China scholar, adviser to Gough Whitlam, and first ambassador to China.
