Tajna Kina

Egon Ervin Kisch

Das Buch ist ein Reisebericht-Reportagewerk des „verrückten Reporters“ Egon Ervin Kisch, das eindrucksvolle Berichte über China in der turbulenten Zeit des 20. Jahrhunderts präsentiert.

In Secret China beschreibt Kisch seine Reise und Forschung in China, einem Land, das sich damals im politischen und sozialen Wandel befand. In einer Reihe von Berichten, Geschichten und Interviews zeichnet der Autor ein Bild von China in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Kisch analysiert die Lebensbedingungen verschiedener Schichten der chinesischen Gesellschaft, von armen Bauern über wohlhabende Kaufleute bis hin zu politischen Eliten. Es beschreibt den Kampf zwischen Nationalisten, Kommunisten und ausländischen Mächten, die Interessen an China hatten. Es zeigt die exotischen Bräuche, Überzeugungen und das tägliche Leben des chinesischen Volkes. Kisch untersucht, wie ausländische Mächte, darunter Großbritannien und Japan, das moderne China geprägt haben.

Als Journalist, der für seine investigative Arbeit bekannt ist, nutzt Kisch authentische Quellen, spricht mit einfachen Leuten und ist Zeuge der Ereignisse aus erster Hand. Sein Stil ist dynamisch, detailliert und fesselnd, was den Leser mitten in das Geschehen hineinzieht.
