A meticulously reported, character-driven, unforgettable investigation of a time when nothing was certain and everything was at stake, by the acclaimed sociologist and best-selling author Eric Klinenberg

“A gripping, deeply moving account of a signal year in modern history, told through the stories of seven ordinary people. Klinenberg’s narrative shows how the legacy of that year continues to shape us, our politics and our personal lives.”—Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of All Maladies

2020 will go down alongside 1914, 1929, and 1968 as one of the most consequential years in history. This riveting and affecting book is the first attempt to capture the full human experience of that fateful time.

At the heart of 2020 are seven vivid profiles of ordinary New Yorkers—including an elementary school principal, a bar manager, a subway custodian, and a local political aide—whose experiences illuminate how Americans, and people across the globe, reckoned with 2020. Through these poignant stories, we revisit our own moments of hope and fear, the profound tragedies and losses in our communities, the mutual aid networks that brought us together, and the social movements that hinted at the possibilities of a better world.

Eric Klinenberg vividly captures these stories, casting them against the backdrop of a high-stakes presidential election, a surge of misinformation, rising distrust, and raging protests. We move from the epicenter in New York City to Washington and London, where political leaders made the crisis so much more lethal than it had to be. We bear witness to epidemiological battles in Wuhan and Beijing, along with the initiatives of scientists, citizens, and policy makers in Australia, Japan, and Taiwan, who worked together to save lives.

Klinenberg allows us to see 2020—and, ultimately, ourselves—with unprecedented clarity and empathy. His book not only helps us reckon with what we lived through, but also with the challenges we face before the next crisis arrives.


一本由杰出社会学家和畅销书作家埃里克·克林贝吉精心报道、以人物为中心、让人难忘的现代史上的标志性一年调查,克林贝吉博士写道:“这本书通过七个普通人的真实故事讲述了这一信号年如何影响我们的政治和私人生活。” 2020年将与1914年、1929年以及1968年一起被视为历史上最具影响力的年份之一。这本扣人心弦且感人的书首次尝试捕捉了这一年中的完整人类经历。 在2020年的核心位置上是七个鲜活的纽约人普通人的故事,包括一名小学校长、一家酒吧经理、一位地铁清洁工和一位当地政治助手的经历,这些故事展示了美国人以及全球人们如何应对2020年。通过这些感人的故事,我们回顾了自己的希望与恐惧时刻,社区中的深刻悲剧与损失,那些互助网络将我们凝聚在一起,以及社会运动透露了更好的世界的可能。 克林贝吉博士生动地捕捉了这些故事,并将其置于一场高风险的总统选举、信息泛滥、信任下降和抗议之间。我们从纽约市的中心迁移到华盛顿特区和伦敦,在那里政治领袖们让危机变得更致命。我们在武汉和北京进行的流行病学战斗,以及澳大利亚、日本和台湾的科学家、公民与政策制定者合作挽救生命的同时所开展的举措。 克林贝吉博士让我们以前所未有的清晰度和同情心看到2020年以及我们自己。这本书不仅帮助我们应对我们的经历,还帮助我们为下一个危机的到来做好准备。
