«Un verano chino» is Javier Reverte's travel book about contemporary China, published by Plaza & Janés in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Reverte travels across today's China from east to west, north to south, and west to east, on a journey that begins in Beijing and ends in Shanghai. He travels by train, bus, plane, and boat, and ventures to Tibet, along the Yangtze River, and to Mao Zedong's birthplace. Amid his reflections on the country's history, he offers a portrait of a complex nation, with a past barely preserved and an uncertain future, doing so with his characteristic serene gaze and humor.
Work included in the Obras diversas collection. Paperback edition with flaps, originally published in 2015.
Spanish novelist, travel writer and journalist (1944–2020)
