ChinaFile Presents: Peter Hessler’s ‘Other Rivers: A Chinese Education’

[@fs5775]

Love Peter Hessler, fantastic Peace Corps volunteer and writer

[@robr.5044]

I have read all of his China books, looking forward to reading this new one.

[@tangyusai13]

Wish Peter can return to China again somedays, that time China can be a confident country can hear all the voices!

Especially his. Xi wants to 讲好中国故事。Nobody in the West does this better than Hessler. Nobody's writing presents Chinese people in a more human, thoughtful and genuinely likable way. Throwing him out is such an act of misguided self sabotage ...

从《江城》和《寻路中国》认识的何伟，对中国社会观察非常深刻的作家，很遗憾因为现在的中美关系影响到了他，希望他能再访中国。

何伟的写作让我重新认识了自己的国家，教育系统。他发现了我熟知但无法辨别其中是非的角度。

Absolutely fabulous conversation

[@richardthegingerbo909]

wonderful!

[@wesleymarvin1707]

瘦了，何伟

[@yliuos]

西方读者可以通过何伟的书管中窥豹了解中国。如果你是中国人但还需要通过他的书来了解中国，那你太脱离中国大众的生活了

[@viviennege905]

“中国大众”这个词太大了，普通人如果没有足够的人脉和经验根本无法真正了解和体验，所以必然是脱离的。想要了解更多的事实，读书是一个很可靠的途径。这也是非虚构作家存在的意义。

[@snowboarding8765]

中国大众？你是中国大众？你能代表何伟的体验？

Too much self importance. Whatever concerns Xi daily - I am sure- Hessler’s teaching credential was never on the list.
