Once Upon a Time in Sakhalin Island

About This Novel

Since the mid-19th century, Sakhalin, which once belonged to China, has become Sakhalin in Tsarist Russia and a hard labor island where Russian prisoners were imprisoned; and to this day, it still has a special connection in the hearts of many Chinese people, with a lingering complexity and heaviness. This is a topic that looks at the big from the small. Starting from the history of Sakhalin Island, it dwells on the history of exchanges between Northeast China and the Central Plains for thousands of years. It also focuses on the advance, retreat, and war of China, Russia, and Japan in the Heilongjiang Basin in the past five hundred years. The author makes full use of Chinese, Manchu, Russian, Japanese and other sources to give a clearer overview of the history of Sakhalin Island. Through the Russian writer Anton Chekhov's trip to Sakhalin, he horizontally intercepted fragments of the historical appearance of Sakhalin in 1890, and through the historical evolution of Sakhalin for thousands of years, he vertically outlined the relationship between Sakhalin and the Chinese dynasties, giving it both a sense of the scene and a sense of history. Through the author's description, readers have a better understanding or new understanding of that homeland. The author lists "Biographies of the Main Characters" at the front of the text and a "Chronology of the History of Sakhalin" in the appendix, which greatly facilitates readers' reading.
