耳熟能详的历史大背景,加上个人命运的千转百回。尽管听了n多种当年故事,每次听都有吸引力,比如乡村赤脚医生的变迁。#还有木有友邻能看到我的书评呀
评分一部新中国的历史。少年时期在戈壁的磨练也算是给单的身体打下了坚强的基础?
评分#选择用英文写出来,主要向外国读者介绍历史是对的,中文的话全都是facts(略流水账),估计很难吸引到读者
评分事无巨细但绝不枯燥的回忆录,单老板有如今的江湖地位也是该当。观察学习思考能力算最基本的,即使在绝地困境下也能尽力突破(学医、研究砖泥搅拌机、搞好人缘、说服学校量身定制课程、多方奔走解决妻子赴美和签证问题等等),也有奇妙的际遇和善缘(Jefferson Starship的签名唱片!)。时势波澜写得也好,个人命题里做不了太深入探讨,但足够全面客观。
评分很personal的一本书,很传奇,戈壁的生活真是苦啊。 除了大陆,台湾也买不到,只有香港有。
Weijian Shan'sOut of the Gobiis a powerful memoir and commentary that will be one of the most important books on China of our time, one with the potential to re-shape how Americans view China, and how the Chinese view life in America.
Shan, a former hard laborer who is now one of Asia's best-known financiers, is thoughtful, observant, eloquent, and brutally honest, making him well-positioned to tell the story of a life that is a microcosm of modern China, and of how, improbably, that life became intertwined with America.Out of the Gobidraws a vivid picture of the raw human energy and the will to succeed against all odds.
Shan only finished elementary school when Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution tore his country apart. He was a witness to the brutality and absurdity of Mao's policies during one of the most tumultuous eras in China's history. Exiled to the Gobi Desert at age 15 and denied schooling for 10 years, he endured untold hardships without ever giving up his dream for an education. Shan's improbable journey, from the Gobi to the "People's Republic of Berkeley" and far beyond, is a uniquely American success story - told with a splash of humor, deep insight and rich and engaging detail.
This powerful and personal perspective on China and America will inform Americans' view of China, humanizing the country, while providing a rare view of America from the prism of a keen foreign observer who lived the American dream.
Says former Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen: "Shan's life provides a demonstration of what is possible when China and the United States come together, even by happenstance. It is not only Shan's personal history that makes this book so interesting but also how the stories of China and America merge in just one moment in time to create an inspired individual so unique and driven, and so representative of the true sprits of both countries."
单先生从戈壁知青到藤校教授的大半生。 惭愧地说,这本英文写就的个人回忆录,让我第一次细致了解知青的生活,和那段历史。这不算是一个草根逆袭的励志故事,因为作者的出身在同辈中已经算是相当优越,但后记中的一组排比,大约是裹挟在历史洪流中的每一个小小的“我”,内心的...

评分读这本书的时候在想,作者为什么要写这本书,为什么要用英文写,是给中国人看的还是给老外看的。如果是老外的话,可能有很多那个时代的用语会让他们不知所云,可能现在的九零后零零后也不会明白。我在读的时候,忍不住会在脑子里把那些词翻译成中文。知青们所做的事大都是无用...
