《趣简中国话》是一本可读性极强的汉语言概览书。作者将自己二十多年来学习汉语的经验,收集的各种生动有趣的案例,甚至自己闹过的各种笑话都和盘托出,毫无保留地与读者分享。全书共分九章。本书为想要亲近中国语言和文化,但又因之复杂性望而却步的外国读者创造一个不错的步入中国之门的机会,既透过文化了解语言,更透过语言领略中国文化的奇妙。
李渡(Stewart Lee Beck)上世纪90年代初来到中国,在华生活与工作的二十多年间,深为中华文化吸引,积极投身文化交流与传播事业。2013年起,他专注于China Simplified(“中国不简单”)这一原创内容品牌和文化平台的建设,吸引更多世界读者亲近中国文化。
