About This Novel

One hundred and seventy thousand people set out on their way home, and 40,000 people returned to their hometowns. A living epic engraved in the bones and blood of the nation. Winter on the Volga, 1771. One hundred and seventy thousand Turhut people, led by the 27-year-old Khan King Ubasi, burned their tents and embarked on a journey of thousands of miles eastward. They crossed the frozen steppes, walked through the muddy swamps, crossed the dead Gobi, escaped the Cossack sabers, and repelled the Kazakh attacks. Eight months, ten thousand miles, and 130,000 people died on the way home. This is not a triumph, it is a survival. This is not a story about a hero leading a group of people to victory, but a story about 170,000 ordinary people gritting their teeth and moving forward in despair, paving their way home with bones. The snow in Tianshan Mountain is sweet. Because in every snowflake, there is a name of a dead soul hidden.
