When Deng Xiaoping’s efforts to “open up” China took root in the late 1980s, Xinran recognized an invaluable opportunity. As an employee for the state radio system, she had long wanted to help improve the lives of Chinese women. But when she was given clearance to host a radio call-in show, she barely anticipated the enthusiasm it would quickly generate. Operating within the constraints imposed by government censors, “Words on the Night Breeze” sparked a tremendous outpouring, and the hours of tape on her answering machines were soon filled every night. Whether angry or muted, posing questions or simply relating experiences, these anonymous women bore witness to decades of civil strife, and of halting attempts at self-understanding in a painfully restrictive society. In this collection, by turns heartrending and inspiring, Xinran brings us the stories that affected her most, and offers a graphically detailed, altogether unprecedented work of oral history.

读后感

读大学的时候，在晚上的专业课上偷偷看这本书，居然看得热泪盈眶。女人有时柔弱，但有时却坚强得可怕。每一个默默付出，在灾难来临时依然维护自己家庭的女人，她们也有过青春洋溢的年华，也作为别人的女儿被宠爱过。长大了，结婚了，有孩子了，才慢慢学会承担痛苦。 我的妈妈，...  

看这个书名 我就很喜欢 因为我相信 无论我们的国家将来多么的发达 多么的开放 无论在哪个国家 所谓的好女人值得我们珍惜 不论从哪个角度 亲情 爱情 友情  

这是一位外国朋友推荐我的一本书,他说如果你对社会学感兴趣,如果你对社会性别感兴趣,那么你一定要读读这本书. 初看的时候我只是抱着一种试探和好奇:让那么多外国人感动的中国女人应该是什么样子?越读下去,我心中越充满了一种感动,充满了为中国女人在面对生活所表现出来的坚强...  

这本书也是一个外国朋友推荐的。这是巧合吗？ 不是！！ 老外喜欢用审视和猎奇的态度来看待中国。 所以这个作者就以此来吸引眼球。 她以为只有她活在民主、幸福、自由之下吗？ 如果这本书是70或者80年代出的，我能理解。 可作者着手写的时候已经97年了，有没有搞错啊？ ------...

用户评价

第一次给我机会使用appalling 这个词的书，惨绝人寰，丧心病狂，书的后半部分竟然还有超越前半部分的悲剧高潮。理当让人哭成傻逼的书，结果“震惊”本身对理智的拷问压倒性灭绝了愤怒与悲伤的任何人伦情绪，完全无法代入同情的成分，连可怜她们这件事也做不到

Astounding. Powerfully moving.

Despite its uneven writing and rather limited scope, Xiran's debut opens the door to a world where women (mostly of older generations) have had their emotional landscape stripped bare because of sexual assaults, disastrous political upheavals and toxic masculinity which still seems the norm in modern China. Not a classic but important enough.
