His actions have sparked worldwide attention, earned him a Nobel Peace Prize nomination, and landed him in jail twice.Ĭomposed in three parts, Unfree Speech chronicles Joshua's path to activism, collects the letters he wrote as a political prisoner under the Chinese state, and closes with a powerful and urgent call for all of us globally to defend our democratic values. Since then, Joshua has led the Umbrella Movement, founded a political party, and rallied the international community around the anti-extradition bill protests, which have seen 2 million people - more than a quarter of the population - take to Hong Kong's streets.

Even his college days at Bowdoin did not quite break through his acquired and inherited reserve but beneath it all, his faculty of divining men and women was exercised with almost uncanny prescience and subtlety. Its colours and shadows are marvelously reflected in his “Twice-Told Tales” and other short stories, the product of his first literary period. He led there a shy and rather sombre life of few artistic encouragements, yet not wholly uncongenial, his moody, intensely meditative temperament being considered. He was born at Salem, Mass., on July 4th, 1804, son of a sea-captain. Nathaniel Hawthorne was already a man of forty-six, and a tale writer of some twenty-four years’ standing, when “The Scarlet Letter” appeared. ![]() ![]() ![]() Production notes: This ebook of Plutarch’s Lives was published by Global Grey in 2018. ![]() This book has 1,755 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1864.
