Features: The stories recorded in From the Year Bingwu to "Exile" are all the author's firsthand experiences during the "Cultural Revolution." As the author stated, these events were part of the "unprecedented Cultural Revolution." The elderly intellectuals from the old society were not the main targets of the "revolution," especially someone like me, who had no fame or power. Generally, we were just there to endure the persecution. What is recorded here is the experience of a "person accompanying the persecution." It is merely a small aspect of this "great revolution."
