Country Driving《尋路中國》是《紐約客》專欄作傢海斯勒的中國紀實三部麯之尾麯。《江城》講的是地理，以地為中心；《甲骨》講的是曆史，以時為中心。《尋路中國》探討經濟，追蹤發展的源頭，探究個人對變革的應對。如前兩本書那樣，它研究的是中國的核心課題，但它不是通過解讀的政治或文化人物來實現這個目的，也不做宏觀的大而無當的分析，它相信通過敘述普通中國人的經曆來展現中國變化的實質。
One of The Economist's Best Books of the Year
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.
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.
我叫彼得·海斯勒，是《紐約客》駐北京記者。這本書講述瞭我駕車漫遊中國大陸的經曆。2001年夏天，我考取瞭中國駕照，在此後的七年中，我駕車漫遊於中國的鄉村與城市。這七年也正是中國汽車業的高速發展期，單在北京一地，每天申領駕照的新人就有一韆多，其中有好幾年，乘用車銷售額的年增長率超過瞭百分之五十。僅僅兩年多的時間，中國政府在鄉村所鋪設的公路裏程數，就超過瞭此前半個世紀的總量。《尋路中國》一書有幾條不同的綫索。它首先敘述瞭我由東海之濱沿著長城一路嚮西，橫跨中國北方的萬裏行程；另一條綫索集中講述瞭一個因中國汽車業的高速發展而發生巨變的鄉村，在這裏，我特寫瞭一個農民傢庭由農而商的變化經曆；zui後，則是中國東南部一個工業小鎮的城市生活場景。書中所描述的這種由農而工而商、鄉村變身城市的發展，正是1978年改革以來中國所發生的重要的變化。《尋路中國》是我的中國紀實三部麯之尾麯。它探討經濟，追蹤發展的源頭，探究個人對變革的應對。如前兩本書那樣，它研究中國的核心議題，但並不通過解讀的政治或文化人物來實現這個目的，也不做宏觀的大而無當的分析。它相信通過敘述普通中國人的經曆來展現中國變革的實質。我經常在一地連續呆上數月、甚至數年，跟蹤變化。我不會僅僅聽主人公自己講述，我會睜大眼睛，看著他們的故事在我麵前一點點展開。這三本書橫跨瞭我的中國十年，從1996至2007。我們可以看齣，這個處於世紀之交的十年是中國曆關鍵的時期之一。正是在這十年中，中國經濟實現瞭騰飛，中國對外部世界的影響力開始。更重要的是，這是去世後的第1個十年。在這十年中，中國曆史的麵貌開始變化，大規模的政治事件與強力開始從中退卻。相反，中國巨變的推動者變成瞭普通人——走嚮城市的農民、邊學邊乾的企業傢，他們的能量與決心是過去這十年中的決定因素。從《江城》到《甲骨文》再到《尋路中國》，我所講述的都是他們的故事。

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.
