Earth Fire

About This Novel

My father's life has come to an end. He tried his best to breathe, which was much harder than when he carried the more than 200 kilograms of iron supports underground. His face was pale, his eyes were protruding, and his lips were dark purple due to suffocation, as if an invisible noose was slowly tightening around his neck. All the simple hopes and dreams of his arduous life had disappeared, and now all he wanted in life was to breathe in a little more air. But my father's lungs, like those of all miners suffering from stage III silicosis, had become a black, gray mass held together by a network of fibers that could no longer carry inhaled oxygen into the blood. The coal powder that made up the ash mass was inhaled bit by bit from underground by my father over the past twenty-five years. It was a very small part of the coal that he had mined in his lifetime. Liu Cixin's short science fiction novels.
