In 1996, 26-year-old Peter Hessler arrived in Fuling, a town on China's Yangtze River, to begin a two-year Peace Corps stint as a teacher at the local college. Along with fellow teacher Adam Meier, the two are the first foreigners to be in this part of the Sichuan province for 50 years. Expecting a calm couple of years, Hessler at first does not realize the social, cultural, and personal implications of being thrust into a such radically different society. In River Town: Two Years on the Yangtze, Hessler tells of his experience with the citizens of Fuling, the political and historical climate, and the feel of the city itself.

"Few passengers disembark at Fuling ... and so Fuling appears like a break in a dream--the quiet river, the cabins full of travelers drifting off to sleep, the lights of the city rising from the blackness of the Yangtze," says Hessler. A poor city by Chinese standards, the students at the college are mainly from small villages and are considered very lucky to be continuing their education. As an English teacher, Hessler is delighted with his students' fresh reactions to classic literature. One student says of Hamlet, "I don't admire him and I dislike him. I think he is too sensitive and conservative and selfish." Hessler marvels,

You couldn't have said something like that at Oxford. You couldn't simply say: I don't like Hamlet because I think he's a lousy person. Everything had to be more clever than that ... you had to dismantle it ... not just the play itself but everything that had ever been written about it.

Over the course of two years, Hessler and Meier learn more they ever guessed about the lives, dreams, and expectations of the Fuling people.

Hessler's writing is lovely. His observations are evocative, insightful, and often poignant--and just as often, funny. It's a pleasure to read of his (mis)adventures. Hessler returned to the U.S. with a new perspective on modern China and its people. After reading River Town, you'll have one, too. --Dana Van Nest, Amazon.com

2011.04.02 我讀的網友翻譯的中文版。何偉的文字冷靜,紮實,透過他的觀察和記錄,來重新認識我們生長的國度,覺整個人都要升華瞭。說起來有點可悲,但也可以用“不識廬山真麵目,隻緣身在此山中”來開脫一下。

真好,我讀過瞭

曆時三個月終於斷斷續續地看完瞭。因為是在一個全新的環境裏觀察和寫作,何偉會用很細膩的筆法寫瞭很多我們都習以為常或者忽略瞭的小細節。在他的書裏我看到瞭熟悉的涪陵和熟悉的涪陵人,但是同時又重新認識瞭自以為還算瞭解的這個城市。最近比較忙,書評稍後奉上。
