About This Novel
Hakka people regard getting married, having children, and building a house as the three major blessings in life. Carrying these three major challenges means shouldering the ups and downs of life. "Tasa" is a collection of Hakka narrative short stories by the young writer Lin Weipan, which includes five stories: "Linglong Qiqiaoxin", "Tasa", "Hourglass", "Van Gogh's Circus" and "Hu Bugui". A girl who ran away from home studied under a teacher, but became a puppet, unable to control her own destiny; behind the glory of the wandering god, the helplessness of the brother's feud spread quietly; the old and helpless grandmother strictly abided by the survival rules of lying in bed at night... These stories start from the Hakka hometown and write about the struggle and persistence of the Hakka people in tradition and modernity, hometown and foreign land. When you are confused between leaving and settling down, the mountains, rivers, sun and moon in your hometown can always give you flavor and strength.
