In 1996, 26-year-old Peter Hessler arrived in Fuling, a town on China's Yangtze River, to begin a two-year Peace Corps stint as a teacher at the local college. Along with fellow teacher Adam Meier, the two are the first foreigners to be in this part of the Sichuan province for 50 years. Expecting a calm couple of years, Hessler at first does not realize the social, cultural, and personal implications of being thrust into a such radically different society. In River Town: Two Years on the Yangtze, Hessler tells of his experience with the citizens of Fuling, the political and historical climate, and the feel of the city itself.

"Few passengers disembark at Fuling ... and so Fuling appears like a break in a dream--the quiet river, the cabins full of travelers drifting off to sleep, the lights of the city rising from the blackness of the Yangtze," says Hessler. A poor city by Chinese standards, the students at the college are mainly from small villages and are considered very lucky to be continuing their education. As an English teacher, Hessler is delighted with his students' fresh reactions to classic literature. One student says of Hamlet, "I don't admire him and I dislike him. I think he is too sensitive and conservative and selfish." Hessler marvels,

You couldn't have said something like that at Oxford. You couldn't simply say: I don't like Hamlet because I think he's a lousy person. Everything had to be more clever than that ... you had to dismantle it ... not just the play itself but everything that had ever been written about it.

Over the course of two years, Hessler and Meier learn more they ever guessed about the lives, dreams, and expectations of the Fuling people.

Hessler's writing is lovely. His observations are evocative, insightful, and often poignant--and just as often, funny. It's a pleasure to read of his (mis)adventures. Hessler returned to the U.S. with a new perspective on modern China and its people. After reading River Town, you'll have one, too. --Dana Van Nest, Amazon.com

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...

一本《寻路中国》让何伟在中国知识圈炙手可热,几乎登上了每一家我所见到的媒体。这本《River Town》则记录了第一次来中国时的青涩感观。《寻路中国》之所以一石激起千层浪,是因为他给了我国人一种旁观者的视角来反躬自省,书中令我们眼前一亮、心头一颤的论断遍地皆是,仿佛...

相當之好。

在讀網絡翻譯的中文版本,翻譯的很好。我們日常的生活在一個外國人眼中摺射齣來,變得這樣的鮮活和耐讀,很推薦!

曆時三個月終於斷斷續續地看完瞭。因為是在一個全新的環境裏觀察和寫作,何偉會用很細膩的筆法寫瞭很多我們都習以為常或者忽略瞭的小細節。在他的書裏我看到瞭熟悉的涪陵和熟悉的涪陵人,但是同時又重新認識瞭自以為還算瞭解的這個城市。最近比較忙,書評稍後奉上。

一個作者的書連著看會吐,不過還好這個是英文版的
