Features: Cities are open yet private. A city is a complex and multifaceted stage of life. Perhaps you have the chance to delve into the depths of the city you live in, finding joy or pain in the dialogue with it. But perhaps, in the blink of an eye, you miss an opportunity. Now, we are privileged to enter a historical northern Chinese city through the pen of a female writer of the People's Republic, through her profound humanistic concern for a city, and into the intriguing lives that have and are unfolding there. You will see: a naive and passionate but impulsive teenage girl; the pursuit of a so-called "problem girl" in an age without poetry; the abnormal deaths of two middle-aged women; three intellectuals who have lost their spiritual homes; the desolate sorrow of a young woman after being banished from the city; bitter love in the modern city; the liberation of Taiyuan, the rebirth of a city.
