HEFEI, China, July 5 - In their muckraking best seller about abuses
against Chinese peasants, the husband-and-wife authors, Chen Guidi and
Wu Chuntao, told the stories of farmers who fought the system and
lost.

The book, "An Investigation of China's Peasantry," describes how one
farmer's long struggle against illegal taxes ended only when the
police beat him to death with a mulberry club. It profiles a village
activist who was jailed on a charge of instigating riots after he
accused a local Communist Party boss of corruption.

"last year, "An Investigation of China's Peasantry" (Zhongguo Nongmin
Diaocha), which was banned for revealing too much about the plight of
China's underclass. The authors are now being sued for libel."
