Remember when they said that book about Tiananmen Square was pure fiction, but my history professor in 2010 quietly slid me a copy after class.
Reading those firsthand accounts from Beijing in '89, with dates and names that matched other records I found, made me see how a story can be erased from one place but still be true.

Wait, your professor actually gave you a copy? That's wild.

Heard they're passing them out like candy this semester.

Right? Mine just emailed the PDF to the whole class. It's like they don't even care about the bookstore anymore.
