Résumé
Age of Ambition describes some of the billion individual lives that make up China’s story. It is a story that unfolds on remote farms, in glittering mansions, and in the halls of power of the world’s largest authoritarian regime. In… a nation riven by contradictions the defining clash taking place today is between the individual and the Communist Party’s struggle to retain control. Here is a China infused with a sense of boundless possibility and teeming romance. National Book Award in Non-Fiction 2014.
