  BEIJING — The new memoir of Hillary Rodham Clinton, “Hard Choices,” which gives blow-by-blow accounts of tough discussions with Chinese officials, particularly on human rights, has been blocked in China, according to the American publisher.

  北京——据该书的美国出版商称,希拉里·罗德姆·克林顿(Hillary Rodham Clinton)的回忆录《艰难抉择》在中国遭封杀,这本书极为详尽地描述了她与中国官员的棘手讨论,尤其是在有关人权的问题上。

  No Chinese publisher made an offer to buy the rights for the book to be translated into Chinese for sale on the mainland, said Jonathan Karp, president of Simon & Schuster, which published the American edition.

  该书的美国版出版商西蒙与舒斯特公司的总裁乔纳森·卡普(Jonathan Karp)说,没有中国出版商愿意购买这本书的中译本版权,在大陆出版。

  The English version of the book was delisted from Amazon China on June 10, the day of publication in the United States, a move that effectively barred wide distribution in China, Mr. Karp said.

  卡普说,6月10日这本书在美国发行的当日,其英文版在亚马逊中国被撤下,基本上阻止了该书在中国的广泛分销。

  In Beijing, Gu Aibin, the head of Yilin Press, the state-owned publishing house that published Mrs. Clinton’s earlier book, “Living History,” said “Hard Choices” was different. “Some of the content was not suitable,” Mr. Gu said. “The company decided not to buy the copyright.”

  国有出版社译林曾出版了希拉里·克林顿以前的书《亲历历史》(Living History),该出版社社长顾爱彬说,《艰难抉择》不同。他说,“这本书里的有些内容不适合。出版社决定不购买这本书的版权。”
