In the moment I lost him, the wind began to rise in my heart, howling as if wanting to blow away everything. I felt like a leaf swept up by the wind, rising and then being blown down again. But the child in my belly supported me, helping me stand up. I carried a life I couldn’t afford to lose.
Fate is a powerful and moving work by Liu Meili, chronicling her difficult yet touching journey from pregnancy to becoming a single mother. When serialized in Japan’s Weekly Post in 2000, it caused a sensation, and after its publication, it garnered widespread attention, debuting at the top of Japan’s bestseller list within a week. The book is filled with warmth and emotion, delving deeply into the essence of life. It leaves readers both moved to tears and heartbroken, yet also imbued with boundless hope and courage for renewal.
In 2002, Fate was adapted into a feature film of the same name, becoming one of the most anticipated films in Japan that year and winning the Best Film Award at the 47th Seoul Asia-Pacific Film Festival.
