Features: Another author from Generation X, another winner of the New Concept Composition Competition, the novelist uses the unique thinking and emotional conclusions of Generation X to express his feelings through his own language. The novel depicts the stereotyped emotions in "The Tower of Babel," where the lovers cannot bear the silence and escape together. A heavy theme, but the combination of words carries a warm touch, and the exquisite color pages in the book add a vibrant hue to it. In a quiet future world, humans have moved into the "Tower of Babel," a high-tech structure. From then on, humans are divided into three tiers based on their IQ and live in their respective numbered levels of the tower, away from death, pain, and sorrow, in an eternal state of quiet time and inner peace. Humans seem to have entered paradise—food comes in capsules, and even emotions are in capsules. Time quietly passes for Wang Ming and Ye Hong, a pair of lovers separated by several cycles in the Tower of Babel. What breaks their peaceful lives? The birth of emotion capsules—why does it cause such a stir? Escape, escape—the days outside the tower remain in Antarctica, an ice and snow world where time quietly passes, yet with a different kind of flavor.
