Courier. The True Story of a Man Who Is Always Waited For but Rarely Noticed

New

From a warehouse worker and courier on the streets of Beijing to an acclaimed writer.

He grew up in a simple family and faced the necessity of earning a living on his own early on. His desires are modest: to get... enough sleep, not to feel constant hunger, and not to suffer from heat and noise. This is a story about survival, the struggle against circumstances, and the modest dreams of an ordinary person who just wants to live slightly better than yesterday.

The memoirs of Hu Anyan, a laborer from China, are the loud voice of those who today engage in minute-by-minute, exhausting, and unnoticed work. Having changed numerous odd jobs and delivered a thousand packages, he shared his story of what it means to remain human in conditions of limited choice. And this story now resonates around the world.
