From the bestselling author of Oracle Bones and River Town comes the final book in his award-winning trilogy, on the human side of the economic revolution in China. In the summer of 2001, Peter Hessler, the longtime Beijing correspondent for The New Yorker , acquired his Chinese driver's license. For the next seven years, he traveled the country, tracking how the automobile and improved roads were transforming China. Hessler writes movingly of the average people—farmers, migrant workers, entrepreneurs—who have reshaped the nation during one of the most critical periods in its modern history. Country Driving begins with Hessler's 7,000-mile trip across northern China, following the Great Wall, from the East China Sea to the Tibetan plateau. He investigates a historically important rural region being abandoned, as young people migrate to jobs in the southeast. Next Hessler spends six years in Sancha, a small farming village in the mountains north of Beijing, which changes dramatically after the local road is paved and the capital's auto boom brings new tourism. Finally, he turns his attention to urban China, researching development over a period of more than two years in Lishui, a small southeastern city where officials hope that a new government-built expressway will transform a farm region into a major industrial center. Peter Hessler, whom The Wall Street Journal calls "one of the Western world's most thoughtful writers on modern China," deftly illuminates the vast, shifting landscape of a traditionally rural nation that, having once built walls against foreigners, is now building roads and factory towns that look to the outside world.
如果说一两百年前中国在西方人眼里的典型形象是“停滞的帝国”,那么现在大概就趋于另一极端:一个不停快速变化的国度。悖论的是,可能由于生活在其中,或过于热爱速度,中国人自己对这个魔幻现实主义的中国,有时看得还不如外国人清楚。 和他的前两本著作《江城》、《甲骨文...
評分这个中文名叫何伟的美国人,把中国人习以为常的场景,讲述得像一幕幕喜剧,和,悲剧!你会看到基层政权的政治斗争(看了这个故事你会明白这个国家的政治斗争是咋回事),农民工的光荣与梦想,官僚阶层贪腐小手段。以及,一个曾经活泼灵动的中国小孩是怎样被培养成你我现在的样...
評分据国务院参事冯骥才说,在过去的十年,全国每天消失80个自然村。 就是这个周六,来自台湾的师妹告诉我,她作为一个『本省人』,是真正来到大陆之后,听到每个人不同的口音以及每个人从那种口音之后所携带的城市历史与个人气质之后,才开始真正体验到她那么多年所不解的『外省...
評分一 美国人彼得•海斯勒(Peter Hessler)在中国呆了五年之后,申请了驾照,中国那么多公路,已经建好的,正在建着的,将要建的,空着也是空着。那是2001年夏,怀揣一本满是无名小路、没有比例尺的《中国汽车司机地图册》,开着一辆从“首都汽车”租来的切诺基,后备箱里赛满...

Done in fits and starts>.< Stunned again by Peter's intensive observation and his perspective of being an viewer. His description really amazed me. Owing to his skilled elaboration, even the trifles seem no longer meaningless to me. I do think, what Peter does is the wildest dream of a journalist.
评分中國變化的進程遠遠快於作者寫作的速度。。
评分很好的故事.
评分More and more on China, in fragments, less and less about Hessler, the eyes, the man, the observer. They said, "the fact-collecting Eagle scout".
评分無論是寫作還是內容上都比她老婆的書好~有幾處非常動人。。
