Features: Yu Hua Works Series. This book expresses the author's obsession with length—a road, a river, a rainbow after rain, an endless memory, an unfinished folk song, a person's life. All of these are like a bundle of coiled ropes, gradually pulled out by the narrative until the end of the road. This book is a long folk song, its rhythm the speed of memory, its melody gently jumping, and its rests hidden by the rhymes. Here, the author only fictions the history of two people but attempts to evoke the memories of many. If, after reading this book, you find that a choice made by a character in the book aligns with your inner judgment, then you and the author have already shared the beauty of literature.
