The book description for my novel Wolf by KMKaung
Wolf is about a fictional hero, Mothi Awegoke, of the 1988 pro-democracy uprising in Burma, in which an estimated 3000 people were killed.  This was a year before Tienanmen in China.
The novel begins on the first day of the clampdown as Mothi Awegoke is fleeing the agents of the junta.
A young woman saves him, but in return she wants something from him too. 
This seems to be the pattern of his life, as he veers between sometimes overwhelming international acclaim, and having death threats placed upon him.  Important events such as the demonetizations, when some bank notes were declared not legal tender, and the anti-Chinese riots of 1967 and Mothi's encounters with the General Bright Sun are woven into the narrative. 
The women in the story are very strong, his mother, his sister Inn Inn, his savior Thuzar, his Chinese neighbor Miss Rose, his American lover the photo journalist Felicity Harwood, the Thai journalist Ongjit. 

But everyone except Miss Rose, the little stranger girl in the crowd and his immediate family seem to have their own agendas. 
His life seems to be getting happier when there is another major upset, of a more personal mature. 
This time it's a bit harder to pull himself back together.
I wrote this novel because in the years that I lived in Burma, studied Burma as an academic overseas, and worked for Democracy, I heard so many stories that needed to be told, in fact were crying out to be told. 
I hope you laugh and cry with me through these pages. 
In the end, this novel Wolf is about love and human beings' love for each other, in the direst of conditions, where love is sorely tested and evil seems to hold sway.
