Features: Time begins here, from where they stand, like the warm earth after the spring rain, floating upwards, swirling and spreading, witnessing every gasp and soft sigh. Every drop of sweat and every moment of entanglement. A thirteen-year-old girl suddenly encounters the most awkward moment in her life. In the shame of being utterly humiliated, she sees her young chemistry teacher walking towards her along the campus path lined with rapeseed flowers. Time begins here. Thirty years later, the person she deeply loved died of heart disease. She tells herself, now she can grow old, because no one cares about her age or appearance anymore. She no longer worries, no longer grieves, no longer fears or trembles. This is a story narrated with language and a more soul. In the dense and oppressive text, you will understand a woman's body, understand the love in her eyes and dreams.
