Books by Peter Hessler
The Buried
An intimate account of the Arab Spring, and Egypt’s past and present, seen through the eyes of a wide range of Egyptians: political operators, archaeologists and garbage collectors; women, the queer community and migrants.
Country Driving
With eloquence and wit Peter Hessler takes us on the road less travelled, showing us a China rarely glimpsed by outsiders. From the fortified towns along the Great Wall in the north, to near-inaccessible hilltop towns and the entrepreneurial cities of the south-east, he explores the rapidly changing landscape and the impact on its people.
