具体描述
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.

读后感
昨晚在一个狠文艺的书店里遇见了何伟的《江城》，说实话我没想到这本书居然获准在大陆出版。而让我惭愧万分的是，当我买回家读完这本书的时候才发现这是它自2012年2月出版以来的第四次加印，我买的是第7万册到第10万册中的一本---如果再刷半年微博，估计我连第五版都会错过了。...
评分原文链接 http://www.ilmare.cn/?p=225 看何伟(Peter Hessler)的这本书其实是一个非常愉快的过程，这本书是我的老师文中先生推荐的。拿到这本书是10月初的事情了。这两个月一直断断续续地看着River Town，这本书算是我看过的第一本真正意义上的原版书籍。 这是一个美国人描...
评分我本不想读任何写中国的书，如同不想读政治和哲学。对于世上的苦难，我仅觉得自己无奈无力；对于世上的精彩，也毫无吸引并不想参和；而对世道的愤怒和评判，更让人增加了保持沉默的力量。你一开口便落入与他们一样的偏见和市恩，人总是对别人的事表现的比自己的清楚。 无奈抱...
评分本文写于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。” ...
评分镜中的斯芬克斯 ——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...

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.
评分If you want to read a book about 90s's China,that is this one.You can find out that many things have changed a lot,whilesomething'sremain there,in Fuling,in Sichuan or even in China
评分已经是上个世纪的过去了
评分比寻路中国更稚嫩，更文青气，更draft，更率性，揉进了更大段的主观感受。格式迥异的各章节，零落记录在涪陵的街头、乡村、校园里的见闻和经历。以个体故事，见时代背景。这是27岁的Howei，在1997年的涪陵。涪陵1997和中国2020相比，太多事情有了变化（当然很多事情仍一成不变，甚至更糟了），以至于我而言，显得有些遥远。反倒是1997年的何伟，跨越23年，和此刻作为读者的我年纪相仿，阅读过程中，由此不断产生亲近感和代入感。读的英文原版，比中文体验要更好，毕竟在语言上，就天然地离Howei1997更近了。
