In the Land of Mao Tse-Tung
When very young, Carlo entered the Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions of Milan. As soon as he had finished his studies, and a month after he had celebrated his first Mass, he was sent to China, where he arrived in 1938, when the war with Japan was at its height. Having perfected his Chinese at the regional House at Kaifeng, he was sent to the Mission at Weihui, in the province of Honan. On the 29th June 1945, he was captured at Suiyeh by the Red Army of Mao Tse-tung and, after a first failure, succeeded in escaping on the 28th January 1946. Repatriated to Italy, he tells in this book, in which he never sacrifices truth to preconceptions, all that he saw personally of the vast area of Asia controlled by Moscow.
