From one of China's most celebrated and silenced literary authors, Murong Xuecun, Deadly Quiet City is an unforgettable collection of true stories from the early months of the COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan. On 23 January 2020, Wuhan was placed in total lockdown. The city of eleven million – the centre of China’s coronavirus outbreak – was cut off from the world. As cherry blossoms fell on silent streets, people were left anxious and afraid, struggling to find medicine, food or information about the virus that had trapped them in their homes. In April 2020, Murong Xuecun bravely travelled to the locked-down city, covertly interviewing people from all walks of life on their experiences as the catastrophe unfolded. An exhausted doctor in a small hospital, battling the virus while sick. An illegal motorcycle taxi driver, ferrying people around the empty city. A citizen journalist fighting to reveal the truth of what happened during that endless spring. The result is eight stories that capture the voices and griefs of a city, and that Murong had to leave China in order to publish. Vivid and haunting, Deadly Quiet City is a unique piece of literary history that reveals so much about the lives of people, the pandemic and China today. Includes editor’s note from Professor Clive Hamilton, author of Hidden Hand

From one of China's most celebrated--and now silenced--literary authors, riveting portraits of eight Wuhan residents at the dawn of the pandemic When a strange new virus appeared in the largest city in central China late in 2019, the 11 million people living there were oblivious to what was about to hit them. But rumors of a new disease soon began to spread, mostly from doctors. In no time, lines of sick people were forming at the hospitals. At first the authorities downplayed medical concerns. Then they locked down the entire city and confined people to their homes. From Beijing, Murong Xuecun--one of China's most popular writers, silenced by the regime in 2013 for his outspoken books and New York Times articles--followed the state media fearing the worst. Then, on April 6, 2020, he made his way quietly to Wuhan, determined to look behind the heroic images of sacrifice and victory propagated by the regime to expose the fear, confusion, and suffering of the real people living through the world's first and harshest COVID-19 lockdown. In the tradition of Dan Baum's bestselling Nine Lives, Deadly Quiet City focuses on the remarkable stories of eight people in Wuhan. They include a doctor at the frontline, a small businessman separated from his family, a volunteer who threw himself into assisting the sick and dying, and a party loyalist who found a reason for everything. Although the Chinese Communist Party has devoted enormous efforts to rewriting the history of the pandemic's outbreak in Wuhan, through these poignant and beautifully written firsthand accounts Murong tells us what really happened in Wuhan, giving us a book unlike any other on the earliest days of the pandemic.

Deadly Quiet (A Murder Mystery) By: B. J. Baumgardner About the Author B. J. Baumgardner, born October 28, 1935 in San Jose, IL, was the 10th child in an intellectual and innovative family of 10 children. She felt blessed to have so many loving sisters and brothers. B. J. lived a busy and interesting life. She received both a bachelor’s degree (from ISU in Normal, IL) and a master’s degree (from the U. of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, IL) in Physical Education. In addition, she earned a certificate from the Famous Writers School. After teaching only two years in Dwight, IL, she decided to join the Navy to expand her knowledge of what life had to offer. And she was successful as evidenced by being assigned to the Pentagon upon graduation from Officer’s Candidate School, which included delivering information regularly to the office of President Eisenhower and then President Kennedy. But B. J. always wanted to be a teacher, so she returned to teaching in Bloomington, IL upon completion of her Navy commitment. She taught a Bloomington High School for 30 years and then retired to her two homes - one in Normal, Illinois and the other in Las Vegas, Nevada where she spent the winter months. Not content with just teaching, B. J. continually needed a challenge. She and two friends, who were sisters, opened a clothing store in downtown Bloomington, IL featuring clothing for large woman called “Classics Unlimited.” Since they purchased a building that included rental units, they purchased additional rental property also. They were so successful with the clothing store that they opened a second one in a mall in Decatur, IL. After ten years, they sold out as other major stores were finally adding clothing for larger women to their inventories. Soon after, they also got out of the rental business. But they had a good run with these two endeavors that were quite successful. If this weren’t enough, B. J. loved music and singing, so she joined Sweet Adelines and performed with them for many years. So what did this woman do upon retiring from teaching? Her friend and traveling companion was still working, so B. J. decided to write murder mystery novels – 2 of them. Fortunately, she had studied for two years at the Famous Writers School for fiction writing in her early years due to her interest in writing. This helped her as she wrote many articles and stories for friends throughout her life. After retirement when she decided to write the murder mysteries, this background with the Famous Writers School proved to be a big advantage to her. In addition to all the above activities, B. J. played a lot of golf, because she loved the challenge of the game. Not surprising, she excelled at the sport. She also traveled continuously throughout the United States most of her life. Although she writes under the name of B. J. Baumgardner, to most of her family and friends, Betty J. Baumgardner, is known as “Nip,” a nickname given to her by her father when she was just a few days old. He introduced her as “a little nip of a thing.” From then on, she was Nip – and still is today.
