From one of China’s most acclaimed and decorated writers comes a powerful first-person account of life in Wuhan during the COVID-19 outbreak and the toll of this deadly calamity on families and individual lives.
On January 25, 2020, acclaimed Chinese writer Fang Fang began publishing an online diary to help herself and others understand what was happening in Wuhan, the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak. Deeply personal and informative, her posts reveal in real-time the widespread impact of the virus and the government’s mandatory quarantine on the city’s residents. Each day, she gives voice to the fears, frustrations, anger, and hope of millions of ordinary Chinese, reflecting on the psychological impact of forced isolation, the role of the internet as both community lifeline and source of misinformation, and most tragically, the lives of neighbors and friends taken by the deadly virus.
In a nation where authorities use technology to closely monitor citizens and tightly control the media, writers often self-censor. Yet the stark reality of this devastating situation drives Fang Fang to courageously speak out against social injustice, corruption, abuse, and the systemic political problems which impeded the response to the epidemic. For treading close to the line of “dissident,” she pays a price: the government temporarily shuts down her blog and deletes many of her published posts.
A fascinating eyewitness account of events as they unfold, Wuhan Diary captures the challenges of daily life and the changing moods and emotions of being quarantined without reliable information. As Fang Fang documents the beginning of the global health crisis in real time, she illuminates how many of the countries dealing with the novel coronavirus pandemic have repeated similar patterns and mistakes.
Blending the eerie and dystopian, the profound and the quotidian, Wuhan Diary is a remarkable record of our times and a unique look at life in confinement in an authoritarian nation.
附上谷歌机翻：
来自中国最受赞誉和最有名望的作家之一，讲述了COVID-19爆发期间武汉人的第一手强大的生活史，以及这种致命的灾难对家庭和个人生活造成的损失。
2020年1月25日，广受赞誉的中国作家方芳（Fang Fang）开始出版在线日记，以帮助自己和其他人了解武汉发生的情况，武汉是COVID-19爆发的中心。她的帖子内容丰富，内容丰富，能实时显示该病毒的广泛影响以及政府对该市居民的强制性隔离措施。每天，她都表达着成千上万普通中国人的恐惧，沮丧，愤怒和希望，这反映了强迫隔离的心理影响，互联网作为社区生命线和错误信息来源的作用，最悲惨的是，致命病毒夺走了邻居和朋友的生命。
在一个国家当局使用技术来密切监视公民并严格控制媒体的国家中，作家经常进行自我审查。然而，这种毁灭性局势的严峻现实驱使方芳勇敢地大声疾呼，反对社会不公正，腐败，虐待和阻碍应对这种流行病的系统性政治问题。为了接近“持不同政见者”的行列，她付出了代价：政府暂时关闭了她的博客，并删除了她发表的许多帖子。
关于事件的生动描述，《武汉日记》抓住了日常生活中的挑战，以及在没有可靠信息的情况下被隔离的情绪和情感的变化。在芳芳实时记录全球健康危机的开始时，她阐明了有多少个应对新型冠状病毒大流行的国家重复了类似的模式和错误。
《武汉日记》融合了诡异和反乌托邦，博大精深的格言，既是我们时代的骄人记录，也是对一个专制国家生活的独特观察。

这是亚马逊上对方方日记的定位，仅供参考。
方方有名吗？亚马逊说她是中国最知名作家之一，现在肯定是了，以前也是吗？在这之前，我还从来没有听说过这个作家。一定是我孤陋寡闻了。也或许和欧美媒体上“知名中国异见分子xxx”但中国人从来没有听说过一样。 |
