Corner of Altay
by Li Juan
About This Novel
The frontier shepherds who come and go in the wind and rain, the turbulent life of constantly migrating with the family, the snowshoe hare only twenty centimeters away from spring, the goldfish fed in the wind-swept desert... The life that should have been heavy, barren and desolate has a different kind of warmth, abundance and joy under Li Juan's unique and sparkling brushwork. If we do not intend to recognize that the life wandering in sadness and the ups and downs of desire is our original life, then there is always another clean and bright life waiting for people to claim it. It is because of this work that Li Juan is highly praised by many literary masters such as Liu Liangcheng, Wang Anyi, Zhu Tianwen, Li Jingze, Chen Cun, etc., And is also loved by readers. She won the second Presenceism Prose Award and the fourth Tianshan Literary Award.

Calm words require a calm heart to appreciate. And the surprises under the sun, the sparkling lake surface and the beating young heart all reveal the beautiful truth.
Although life is hard and the environment is harsh, there is always a different kind of warmth and happiness everywhere
You must have such a gentle heart to write such clean and clear words
Through her eyes, we re-see the world's skin-deep secrets.
First, I always saw Li Juan on Reader, and then I gradually started to pay attention to her.
Being a tailor is so difficult, stitch by stitch, from dawn to dawn, dusk to dusk, just like our lives.
Take your time and appreciate it.
The writing style is fresh and delicate, using small things to reflect the mood, showing the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature and the harmonious coexistence with the natural environment. Especially the chapter about the snow rabbit is still fresh in my memory.
I really like her books. They are very lively, interesting, fresh and smart. Moreover, she is also the selected material for the three volumes of Chinese reading in the national college entrance examination this year. I like it.
Fresh, elegant and eloquent.
