A New York Times Notable Book
Winner of the Kiriyama Book Prize
In the heart of China's Sichuan province, amid the terraced hills of the Yangtze River valley, lies the remote town of Fuling. Like many other small cities in this ever-evolving country, Fuling is heading down a new path of change and growth, which came into remarkably sharp focus when Peter Hessler arrived as a Peace Corps volunteer, marking the first time in more than half a century that the city had an American resident. Hessler taught English and American literature at the local college, but it was his students who taught him about the complex processes of understanding that take place when one is immersed in a radically different society.
Poignant, thoughtful, funny, and enormously compelling, River Town is an unforgettable portrait of a city that is seeking to understand both what it was and what it someday will be.
Peter Hessler is a staff writer at The New Yorker, where he served as the Beijing correspondent from 2000 to 2007, and is also a contributing writer for National Geographic. He is the author of River Town, which won the Kiriyama Prize; Oracle Bones, which was a finalist for the National Book Award; and, most recently, Country Driving. He won the 2008 National Magazine Award for excellence in reporting, and he was named a MacArthur Fellow in 2011. He lives in Cairo.
過瞭將近10個月,終於斷斷續續地把這本書看完瞭。描寫很細膩。筆觸很真誠。
評分Damn it's been around 20 years since the first edition came out...Even a Chinese like me found the mindsets of people at that time bizarre to some extent. What massive changes have taken place all over the nation... Yet some problems, or say the national ethos, remain unchanged, such as the pragmatism, the sole focus of life on earning money, etc.

評分比起《尋路中國》, 我更喜歡《江城》. 無論如何, 《江城》是何偉的親身經曆和感受, 一個外國人如何適應接受一個陌生的環境. 《尋路中國》的何偉也許更"中國通", 太客觀的描寫製造瞭距離, 而描述的生活在我這個中國人看來又很平常.
評分紀實係列的第五本。看這本書的時間拖得太長瞭,有點懈怠。整體印象是細緻,誠懇,幽默和諷刺!身在局中久瞭,難免一葉障目。局外人纔能比較客觀地評價和質疑。而我們自己也需要正視和珍惜身邊的美!
本文写于2014年9月,《奇石》在中国发售时,何伟曾受译文出版社之邀来到中国。 1 我有个才华横溢的同事,两年前,他在报社的业务探讨营(现在这种活动已经消失在历史的长河中了)上推荐了一本书,叫作《江城》。他说:“任何有志于从事特稿写作的记者,都应该去看看这本书。” ...
評分彼得•海斯勒(中文名何伟,1969-)很早就有成为作家的梦想。他先在普林斯顿大学修文学,1992年获得罗德奖学金后赴英国牛津大学深造。1996年他作为“和平队”( The Peace Corps)队员到中国涪陵支教。这次支教还有两个更实际的目的:第一是体验生活,让写作才华在一个陌生...
評分镜中的斯芬克斯 ——彼得·海斯勒和他的“中国三部曲” 认字癖这件事,恐怕任何一种语言的初学者都一样。1996年,27岁的美国人彼得·海斯勒(Peter Hessler,中文名何伟)初来中国,在当时还隶属四川的涪陵师专“支教”。每天早上,他跑步经过各种刷满汉字的墙壁时,都试...
評分看这本书的时候,我的感受有点奇怪,因为我感觉到自己的思路明显是和Peter站在一边的。简单的说,我在他的书看到了以前的自己,而现在的我一直用一种带有西方价值观的思维方式去审视过去的,包括以前的教育和在这个教育体制下产生的我。虽然我并不来自四川,但是书里面提到的...
