Age of Ambition pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
A young army captain who risked execution to swim from free-market Taiwan to Communist China. A barber who made $150 million in the gambling dens of Macau. The richest woman in China, a recycling tycoon known as the 'Wastepaper Queen'. Age of Ambition describes some of the billion individual lives that make up China's story - one that unfolds on remote farms, in glittering mansions, and in the halls of power of the world's largest authoritarian regime. Together they describe the defining clash taking place today: between the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. Here is a China infused with a sense of boundless possibility and teeming romance. Yet it is also riven by contradictions. It is the world's largest buyer of Rolls Royces and Ferraris yet the word 'luxury' is banned from billboards. It has more Christians than members of the Communist Party. And why does a government that has lifted more people from poverty than any other so strictly restrain freedom of expression? Based on years of research, Age of Ambition is a stunning narrative that reveals China as we have never understood it before.

那些年我知道的事和我不知道的细节。私译名是“狂望时代”,欲望,希望和失望皆张狂的年代。作者连贯的叙事逻辑有效解决了多重跳跃叙事易造成的碎片化问题,确实写得一手好文章。
评分有助于了解外国人对中国的看法 内容丰富
评分去年在爱丁堡读完的,但一直希望抽时间再读一遍。书内列举的很多事实对我的一些观点和价值产生了非常大的冲击。欧逸文真是又帅又有才。
评分虽然欧逸文和彼得·海斯勒写得都是中国社会观察,但欧逸文是典型的记者,重在客观观察、向西方社会揭示他所在的八年中国社会的核心变化,那也无怪乎他提取的都是一些重大事件,熟练于翻墙的中国读者难免觉得他冷漠以及老生常谈。但尽管如此,他还是提供了许多我不知道的细节,以及因为此书追踪到2013年,相比彼得·海斯勒所写的90年代的江城、陈梦家的经历,许多事件和评书更有切身体会。 而彼得·海斯勒更像是创作者,《甲骨文》一书最为显著,即使串写中国社会几十年的变迁,也有意识挑选并不广为人所知的个体入手,并在写作技巧上有明显的打磨,几条线索反复穿插,但思路明晰,也不显素材堆砌(这一点欧逸文差太远,或者说意不在此),我想这就是所谓创作者的自觉。
评分He should continue. So many new topics since last summer.
长年累月来习惯了隔靴搔痒式的新闻报道,突然间送我一把尖刀,剔开包裹着这个社会的那块遮羞布,我着实有点不适应。就像一个近视眼患者,以为世界就是模糊的,却在配完一副眼镜后,看到画面清晰而又陌生。 作为一个外国新闻工作者,Evan旁观者的视角揭露了我们自己...
评分欧逸文的《野心时代》获得了2014年美国国家图书奖年度最佳非虚构类图书大奖,但是这本关于当代中国的书注定不可能在大陆出版,它包含了太多敏感词。 而敏感词,关于“审查”与“真相”正是这本书的重要主题之一。欧逸文跟踪记录和采访了诸如艾未未、陈光诚、韩寒以及一位不能...
评分想必,在这个世界上,没有哪个国家的人像中国人一样,这么关注外国人怎么看自己的吧? 因此,一大票的洋和尚纷至沓来,各自开始念起灵感得益于中国这片神奇土地的“经”。 基辛格那么老辣,可是在On China(看中国)里仍然能窥见到他因为与中国有着千丝万缕的联系,而以此拥有...
评分讀完整本書後,我不免有些傷感。 作為《紐約客》的駐京記者,歐逸文很自然會被讀者拿來同他的前任何偉比較。他們兩者的風格不一,何偉的文章顯然完全深入了他採訪對象的生活,而歐逸文則擅長在宏觀層面考慮問題。若是要我給個答案,我會覺得何偉的著作更值得反復閱讀。但問題...
