About This Novel
The famous writer Fang Fang always writes down to earth. Similarly, Fang Fang's prose also has a warmth close to life, sparkles of thought, and has profound compassion and humanistic spirit. This manuscript is composed of two parts. The first part is the author's travel notes at home and abroad in recent years. What he has seen and thought about, the vision is broad and the writing is elegant. The second part is "Hankou Old Concession". The author examines modern history, reviews and reflects on the "state within a state" - the concession that was forcibly delimited by the British, German, Japanese and French powers in Hankou in the mid-to-late 19th century. The vicissitudes of the past are thought-provoking.
