Paul Theroux left Victoria Station on a rainy Saturday in April thinking that taking eight trains across Europe, Eastern Europe, the USSR and Mongolia would be the easy way to get to the Chinese border - the relaxing way, even. He would read a little, take notes, eat regular meals and gaze contentedly out of windows. The reality, of course, was very different. In fact, Theroux experienced a decidedly odd and unexpected trip to China that set the challenging tone for his epic year-long rail journey around that vast, inscrutable land - a journey which involved riding nearly every train in the country. 'Wry, humorful and occasionally querulous...as Theroux makes excruciatingly clear, travelling alone in the Middle Kingdom is not for the faint of heart or stomach' - "Time".
There are many subjects and objects, but there are more humans. And it is only due to the excellent writing that objects can become humans. One of the best writings I’ve ever read.

评分为啥这本我没标?最近为了一件事儿,重新再看保罗索鲁的书,80年代的中国在他笔下栩栩如生,还有那种一贯的幽默、刻薄劲儿。可以说是何伟之前以外国人角度写非虚构中国的第一人了。
评分就也还将就,没有什么特别eye-opening 的点,而且一副居高临下的姿态。86年毕竟是遥远的过去了
