The conquerors / André Malraux; translated by Winifred Stephens Whale. With a new postface translated by Jacques Le Clercq.

This book describes the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communists in the Cantonese revolution of the 1920s. It is both a war story and a gallery of intellectual portraits: a ruthless Bolshevik revolutionary, a disillusioned master of propaganda, a powerful Chinese pacifist, and a young anarchist. Each of these "conquerors" will be crushed by the revolution they try to control.
