Features: Raised in a mental asylum, the clay doll with a dream of fantasy comes to this city of desires, searching for a love that has long been lost. Soon, she falls into a strange emotional whirlpool: she struggles between her sister's sexual partner and her mother's lover, watching helplessly as they use different kinds of sex and love to accept and tear her apart. In the end, she destroys everything, including her own life, with a series of heretical acts. The author, with poetic language and a sense of the bizarre, portrays a tragic love between two generations. It shows the attitudes and dreams of men from different eras toward their lovers. It also poses a sharp question to urban couples: Where do you place your lover? This novel is the debut work of the 1970s female poet Xiwa, infused with her unique interpretations and fantasies about love, sexuality, marriage, and family. At the same time, the depth of its ideas and the charm of its language establish the literary value of this work.
