Letters from Burma

3.9/5 ( ratings)

Since November 1995, Aung San Suu Kyi has been writing a weekly column in a Japanese newspaper in which she gives her impressions of the political, cultural and social scene in Burma today: subjects range from what the Burmese have for breakfast, through a description of her first visit after release from house arrest to a national shrine, to overt political pieces on the repression in the country. The result is 52 pieces, all illustrated by a Burmese artist, which provide an overall picture of the country today.
