About This Novel
This book selects three novellas that were shortlisted for the third session of the "Cross-Strait Online Original Literature Competition". From the sadness and joy of small characters and their struggle with fate, we can see the changes in society. "The Successor of the Dream" tells the story of Hu Shaoye, a railway boy who was forced to become the "third generation" of his family under the arrangement of fate. From rejection of work to passive acceptance, to heartfelt love and hard work, it condenses the growth history of the entire generation of railway people born in the 1980s. "Born a Woman" describes Weng Gouzi, who was abandoned by her mother when she was young. Her father who loved her later ignored her, and her beloved man Wu Kui became addicted to bad habits such as gambling. He lived tenaciously under a stumbling fate. By deeply exploring the subtle changes in human nature under various circumstances, the work truly restored the magnificent historical picture of the countryside in the 1980s. "Piano Music" is a story about a frog boiled in warm water. In the deception, the protagonist Na Yun gradually loses the ability to discern, and gradually falls into the trap due to greed. He is as sad and deplorable as a frog cooked in warm water. However, once the greed is gone and the state of mind becomes pure, all the problems are easily solved. At the end of the story, the protagonist Na Yun finally wakes up, which makes people feel embarrassed and the price of courage.
