Sinossi
Selected from blog posts from 2006-present, This Generation tells the story of modern China from Han Han's unique perspective. Writing on topics as diverse as racing, prostitution, and how to be a patriot, Han Han has written a diary that is not only invaluable for the English-speaking world to understand our rising Eastern partner and rival, but which will long be remembered as a millennial time capsule.
The core of this anthology is drawn from the collection Qingchun (Youth), published in Taipei in 2010, but it also contains a sprinkling of both older and more recent pieces. Presented in chronological order, the sequence opens with a handful of early posts; it excerpts Han Han's work more fully beginning in 2008, the year when he really hit his stride and his blog commanded a larger and larger audience in the run-up to the Beijing Olympics. The anthology closes with Han Han's controversial cluster of essays posted in the final days of 2011.

Recensione
'Han can sound funny, cocky, ironic, rude silly, provocative but also oddly opaque and elusive... It s a thrilling, if disorienting, ride' --Independent
Dalla quarta di copertina
For those who follow Chinese affairs, Han Han is as controversial as they come-an irreverent singer, sports celebrity and satirist whose brilliant blogs and books have made him a huge celebrity in his native country.

This Generation gathers his essays and blogs dating from 2006 to the present, telling the story of modern China through Han Han's unique perspective.

This Generation introduces a dazzling new talent and offers an entertaining and invaluable way for English readers to understand our rising Eastern partner and rival.
