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”。
在这本《寻路中国》里,海勒斯为我们呈现了一个看似熟知而其实可能从不曾仔细观察过的中国。如果中国是一个宽阔的多面的立体的存在,那么,这次,我们得以从一个全然不同的视角,随海勒斯切入这个变动中的古老国度。海勒斯的有意思在于,这个我们熟悉的中国,在他笔下,渐渐的...
