Features: This book takes the joys and sorrows of the Qiqi family's four generations as its main thread, epic-style, depicting the life in occupied Beiping during the War of Resistance. It deeply movingly recreates the humiliation and indignation of the conquered people, as well as the resilience and indomitable spirit of the general populace in enduring hardship and resisting fiercely. It exposes the outrageous atrocities of the invaders and the servile attitude of traitors who collaborated with them. At the same time, it vividly illustrates the process of Chinese culture discarding the old and embracing the new, moving towards progress during the war.
