Evan Osnos joined The New Yorker as a staff writer in 2008. He was the magazine's correspondent in China, where he lived in a restored house in Beijing north of the Forbidden City, from 2005 until 2013 when he moved to Washington, D.C. He has received many prizes, including the Asia Society's Osborn Elliott Prize for Excellence in Journalism on Asia and the Livingston Award for Young Journalists. Osnos previously worked as the Beijing Bureau Chief of the Chicago Tribune, where he contributed to a series that won a 2008 Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting.
A young army captain who risked execution to swim from free-market Taiwan to Communist China. A barber who made $150 million in the gambling dens of Macau. The richest woman in China, a recycling tycoon known as the 'Wastepaper Queen'. Age of Ambition describes some of the billion individual lives that make up China's story - one that unfolds on remote farms, in glittering mansions, and in the halls of power of the world's largest authoritarian regime. Together they describe the defining clash taking place today: between the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. Here is a China infused with a sense of boundless possibility and teeming romance. Yet it is also riven by contradictions. It is the world's largest buyer of Rolls Royces and Ferraris yet the word 'luxury' is banned from billboards. It has more Christians than members of the Communist Party. And why does a government that has lifted more people from poverty than any other so strictly restrain freedom of expression? Based on years of research, Age of Ambition is a stunning narrative that reveals China as we have never understood it before.
I hesitated to do a review for a lot of reasons, not least because I skipped some of the chapters towards the end of this book. Yet I think Mr. Osnos must ask himself: To whom, and for what purpose, did he write this book? If this is simply an anthology o...
评分五月份我參加了他的簽名會,他和電視里一樣英俊與犀利。 這本書也許對於一個不是中國人來說是一本很好的書,我理解他作為一個外國人努力的學習中國的語言與文化,他也成功看到了ZF與PEOPLE的分裂,但是我總是覺得仿佛缺失了什麼關於中國深刻的見地,只是在廣泛的描述一個問題...
评分最近读书不多,除了看完全套银河系漫游指南之外,就是这本欧逸文Evan Osnos的《野心时代》。欧逸文继何伟之后任《纽约客》驻中国的记者,所以基本上所有人都会拿他们比较下。我觉得他们俩最好的地方是特别中立,都不急着给事情下判断,都试图深入一点,看到中国纷繁复杂的表象...
评分讀完整本書後,我不免有些傷感。 作為《紐約客》的駐京記者,歐逸文很自然會被讀者拿來同他的前任何偉比較。他們兩者的風格不一,何偉的文章顯然完全深入了他採訪對象的生活,而歐逸文則擅長在宏觀層面考慮問題。若是要我給個答案,我會覺得何偉的著作更值得反復閱讀。但問題...
评分他在书本的开头说,作为一位在中国居住多年的外国人,他意识到自己在思考和写作时很容易会陷入对比和批判模式,把在中国看到的一切和自己的祖国美国对比。但是,他更希望自己摘下有色眼镜, 试用中国人的方式记下这一切。 的确。在读这些文章的过程,我确实感受到他的用心:他...
去年在爱丁堡读完的,但一直希望抽时间再读一遍。书内列举的很多事实对我的一些观点和价值产生了非常大的冲击。欧逸文真是又帅又有才。
评分每次写稿都要拿出来观摩的书,我现在还是在模仿阶段,可越模仿越看到差距,这需要经验,学识和时间来弥补。
评分纽约客的风格,印象最深的为小悦悦那章
评分老书虫千里迢迢寄来,一边看一边拍大腿。一年半的抗争之下,公司终于重整绩效体系。虽然依旧不公,但是比起同类公司显然已经公平很多了。看见小雨姐每天昂首大喊“要爱护打印机!”心里似乎开心很多。永远不要给潮汕老板打工。这就像东北不能在烧烤摊上盯人看一样的铁律。
