Life and Death Lesson (translated Documentary)
by Yuan Ling
About This Novel
The first original work in the translation documentary series, a current story about life and death in China. "Lessons on Life and Death" is a collection of Yuan Ling's short stories, which record the little people who move around in various places of existence, or the anonymous people who are superimposed in the historical strata. Most of these characters are encountered by the author during his growth experience, interviews and surveys, and charity visits. They include rural elders and marginalized people in the city; there are missing people in history and children left behind; there are hard-working businessmen and white-collar workers under the shadow of autism. There are dead people and there are living people. Their life experiences may be described as twists and turns, or simply sloppy. Life scenes are either unique or ordinary. They are not the protagonists in the spotlight of the times, but each has their own plot. Yuan Ling records the life and death of these people, not only for the sake of their lives, but also for the understanding of his own life.
