Features: Xu Guangyao, famous for the novel Little Soldier Zhang Ga, is also skilled in writing essays. The Unfading River, a collection of his finest essays over 20 years, is a recollection of the author's self-experience as a "lover of humanity." The War of Resistance Against Japan and the "Anti-Rightist Campaign" are emotional knots that Xu could never fully unravel throughout his life. Articles included in the book, such as Days Rolling on the Sharp Edge of Bayonets and Last Night the West Wind Blew the Green Trees, not only help readers understand that unforgettable past but also allow them to taste the author's passion and concerns. There are no grand and magnificent words here, only warm and flowing narratives.
