Présentation
From 2005 to 2013, New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos lived in China and came to know entrepreneurs, dissidents, strivers and dreamers caught up in the country's extraordinary transformation. Age of Ambition chronicles their lives — the chase for fortune, truth and faith in a nation remaking itself at breakneck speed. Winner of the 2014 National Book Award for Nonfiction, it remains one of the most vivid portraits of contemporary China: not a treatise on policy, but a chorus of individual voices navigating aspiration and control. Immersive, precise and deeply human reporting.
