The author, in his twenties, who is fluent in Chinese, examines the future of China through the lens of the Jiu Ling Hou―the generation born after 1990.
A close up look at the Chinese generation born after 1990 exploring through personal encounters how young Chinese feel about everything from money and sex, to their government, the West, and China’s shifting role in the world--not to mention their love affair with food, karaoke, and travel. Set primarily in the Eastern 2nd tier city of Suzhou and the budding Western metropolis of Chengdu, the book charts the touchstone issues this young generation faces. From single-child pressure, to test taking madness and the frenzy to buy an apartment as a prerequisite to marriage, from one-night-stands to an evolving understanding of family, Young China offers a fascinating portrait of the generation who will define what it means to be Chinese in the modern era.
Zak Dychtwald was twenty when he first landed in China. He spent years deeply immersed in the culture, learning the language and hanging out with his peers, in apartment shares and hostels, on long train rides and over endless restaurant meals.

用户评价
挺有趣，但是语言、组织材料的功力相比何伟、史明智等都有明显差距
评分还可以 挺有趣不过不够深入
评分个人觉得是个可以读读打发时间、对于学英语的学生来说里面有很多描述中国社会和文化特有的素材，作者以他在中国呆的有限时间写的作品不可能很客观的描述中国社会和文化
评分还可以，当作英文阅读材料看的，不错的小伙子
评分全书充满了偏见，标题像是UC震惊部起的，最后无论什么现象都归结到中国的快速发展。看的过程中无数次想打人。
