In the 1990s, as China continues to embrace—and grapple with—the global market economy, Qiu Shui and his friends attend med school, an ambition that has more to do with getting out of the country than with actually becoming doctors. Following the exploits of a young student and his classmates, from drinking binges, sex, and playing video games all night to military training, homework, and college-age high jinks, Beijing, Beijing provides an inventive, hilarious, and incisive look into how a culture—and one man—struggle to reconcile their past with the changes brought by modern times. As the years pass and friends, family, and lovers move on, Qiu Shui confronts the loneliness and confusion that define his generation.

I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning ...
By Rachel Stewart
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning contemporary China society (especially the late 90s).
I'm personally fascinated with the story and Feng's writing style. I spent five years in China, mainly Beijing, studying Chinese and Chinese Literature. I'm glad that I encountered "Beijing,Beijing" (the Chinese version) while I was trying to delve into contemporary Chinese literature.
The "explicit erotic" depiction may remind you of Henry Miller. Beyond all that, it reveals some emotional and private experience of the generation. It has the big picture and the very personal journey as well. The late 90s is an important time period that surely can not be skipped for anyone who wants to learn the contemporary China, and "Beijing, Beijing" would be the best book to turn to.
I like to read Michelle Deeter's English translation of this book. It catches Feng's unique writing rhythm and humor.
While reading (again), I feel like it takes me back to where I were in Beijing. Highly recommend it. It will surprise you when you start it.

I guess there is a reason I didn't make to MD nor MK partner. There is something raw about BJ BJ which made them happen
By shan
Heard about Feng Tang as he is famous in China, as a controversial writer ,as a investor, as a McKinsey partner. It is hard to believe Feng Tang as 3 in 1. It is like buying a ticket expecting a movie but there is a damn hot guy sitting next to you served with popcorn and nachos for free and he asked your number ! you may like it or hate it. The 'exotic' scenes were fascinating and funny with a lot of live experiences from his Gynaecology M.D degree. (Yes he has a MD on Gynaecology). There is something heavy when I realized in this book, during the time people had so little to live on( both cultural and money wise) but so much to express. I have never been poor money wise, but I always feel poor mentally. I guess there is a reason I did not make it to MD nor MK partner. There is something raw about Beijing Beijing which made them happen. when I say raw, I meant physically and mentally . LOL

As an English reader in most time of my life, I’m happy to see his books getting published in English. Expecting to see more.
By Ryan A.
One of mine Chinese friends who is art industry recommended Feng Tang’s book to me. What I heard is that Feng’s book had become some kind of “underground” fever among Chinese readers years ago. It, of course, is not underground anymore now, but if you know a little bit about Chinese publishing industry, you may understand what I meant by “underground” that it often roughly equals excellent quality in any terms. Beijing, Beijing is one of his signature series that I enjoyed reading. Another one which is even more worth reading, Oneness, is true underground in mainland China, because it is censored and is only published in Hong Kong.
As an English reader in most time of my life, I’m happy to see his books getting published in English. Expecting to see more of him.
