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.
彼得·海斯勒(Peter Hessler),中文名何伟,曾任《纽约客》驻北京记者,以及《国家地理》杂志等媒体的撰稿人。
他成长于美国密苏里州的哥伦比亚市,在普林斯顿主修英文和写作,并取得牛津大学英语文学硕士学位。海斯勒曾自助旅游欧洲三十国,毕业后更从布拉格出发,由水陆两路横越俄国、中国到泰国,跑完半个地球,也由此开启了他的旅游文学写作之路。
海斯勒散见于各大杂志的旅游文学作品,数度获得美国最佳旅游写作奖。他的中国纪实三部曲中,《江城》一经推出即获得“奇里雅玛环太平洋图书奖”,《甲骨文》则荣获《时代周刊》年度最佳亚洲图书等殊荣。海斯勒本人亦被《华尔街日报》赞为“关注现代中国的最具思想性的西方作家之一”。
很好看,一开头就非常吸引人了。引用驾照考试的题目,笑死了

评分读何伟最大享受之一是他的语言,准确简单,就是在准确的前提下用最简单的词汇,这是很高的境界也是我最欣赏的纪实文学风格。何伟三本书可以做大学英语教材,对国内学生来说有熟悉的题材陌生的视角,对使用英语多年的读者如我,也能从他书中学到更简洁生动优美的英文,去亲近并了解一个辽阔的复杂的祖国

评分不同的角度去看那些我们习以为常的中国特色…
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...
评分这本由纽约客驻京记者描述当代中国的非虚构文学作品,总共分成三个部分,分别是城墙、村庄,还有工厂。 我个人比较中意的是书的第二部分——村庄,因为比起城墙与工厂走马观花式的旅行笔记,村庄这部分更多的是在讲述与人的相处,而非仅仅透过建筑设施的更迭、环境的变迁,与沿...
评分我用视觉和嗅觉来读这本书。翻开第一页,嘿,我立即愉快地猜到作者何伟以往准给《美国国家地理》写过稿子,后来发现果然如此。这种文体对我再亲切不过了,我马上嗅到了特有的NG味儿,同时幻觉着翻开了那本明黄色框子的16页对开杂志。那些稿子带着露珠、烟尘,或者铺展着道路,...
评分 评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...
