by Xinxin Zhang

Description

These short profiles are from a collection which aims to present the experiences and attitudes of a hundred Chinese from different walks of life as interviewed by Zhang Xinxin and Sang Ye during a year on the road. The hundred subjects chosen are not all "typical characters." Their ideas, lives and hopes may fall short of reflecting the reforms now taking place in our economy. All the same, they still illustrate something of this irresistible trend. They have widely divergent world-views and show more life experiences. This is a rich tapestry that represents a wide cross-section of contemporary Chinese society show less
