The author, in his twenties, who is fluent in Chinese, examines the future of China through the lens of the Jiu Ling Hou―the generation born after 1990.
A close up look at the Chinese generation born after 1990 exploring through personal encounters how young Chinese feel about everything from money and sex, to their government, the West, and China’s shifting role in the world--not to mention their love affair with food, karaoke, and travel. Set primarily in the Eastern 2nd tier city of Suzhou and the budding Western metropolis of Chengdu, the book charts the touchstone issues this young generation faces. From single-child pressure, to test taking madness and the frenzy to buy an apartment as a prerequisite to marriage, from one-night-stands to an evolving understanding of family, Young China offers a fascinating portrait of the generation who will define what it means to be Chinese in the modern era.

语言和阅历都不及何伟 内容也是走马观花式的印象流 老外看了不曲解中国有鬼了
评分还可以,当作英文阅读材料看的,不错的小伙子
评分哥伦比亚大学毕业生Zak Dychtwald以他在中国生活学习多年的切身经历和细致入微的观察思考,写下了《young China》这本书,描述了他眼里中国九零后的生活状态以及他对中国的思考。“剩女”、“啃老族”、“优衣库事件”、"同志“……Dychtwald触及了很多关于当下中国年轻人的热点、热词,可谓不在庐山内,更识真面目。
评分可能因为居住国外多年。作者看待的祖国的视角和我反而比较像。很多观点都和我相同,且用更好的语言清晰表达出来了。
评分总体一般,没什么新意,自己都明白。更适合外国人来读读了解了解
