Features: "Who can tell me how to balance being a woman and being a person? I love being a mother so much that as long as I place my child's head on my chest, I feel happiness. But I am also a personal feminist who needs a great deal of inner space. If you have never experienced the joy and pain of giving birth, what can you possibly tell me?" As one of the most influential voices in the Chinese world, Long Yingtai's writing is full of grandeur. Yet, Child, You Are Not Alone leaves one in awe, as her words can also convey profound emotion. In this book, Long Yingtai is a mother who faces the essence and origin of life with simplicity, engaging in deep reflection and unwavering love. It is not a traditional ode to motherhood but rather a realistic portrayal of life, a kind of prose that only a writer who truly understands love can write.
