Beyond the Green Ridge: the Crossroads of Asian and European Civilizations
by Hou Yangfang
About This Novel
At the crossroads of Asian and European civilizations, Congling has witnessed thousands of years of historical changes. It has seen the Indo-European chariots rumbling past, Alexander's phalanx marching in order, Xuanzang's figure moving forward in the snow, Genghis Khan's cavalry roaring, and the roar of Russian artillery. The technological revolution of every era has left its mark here, and every collision of civilizations has sparked sparks here. But some things never change. The sun still rises in the east and sets in the west every day; snow water still flows down from the mountains, nourishing the oases; business travelers still rush on the road, exchanging goods and ideas; people from different civilizations still meet here and write new stories.
