About This Novel

This is a collection of essays that presents several aspects of the rural life of the author himself and surrounding groups. In today's modern world, people increasingly feel that there are many places to go in life, but few places to return to. The pace of urbanization has caused earth-shaking changes to many people's "townships". Although the countryside replicates the city, it looks grand, but it lacks charm, weakens feelings, erases memories, and separates tradition. This book uses the form of prose, either lyrical, narrative, or discussion, to express homesickness, recall the past, and think about the future. The book contains more than 40 articles, including scenes of life such as "Pulling Mills", "Building Roads", "Building Houses", and "Working", character descriptions such as "Several Craftsmen", "Elders", and "Normal Students", as well as interesting natural scenes such as "Biographies of Small Animals", "March in the Mountains", and "Xicha River". In the book, we can touch the details of the past farming civilization, feel the memories of rural culture, and relive the sadness of our drifting away hometown.
