About This Novel
Leprosy is also known as a disease of poverty. The more economically backward an area is, the more likely it is to be a leprosy endemic area. If humans want to defeat leprosy, they must not only fight the plague, but also fight poverty. Wajiji Village, Meigu County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, has been on this journey of resistance for half a century. Its poverty alleviation and success are a microcosm of how China has cracked the biggest "hard nut" in its fight against poverty.
