About This Novel

Introduction to the work "Spark in the Crock" On a snowy night in the central Hebei plain in 1937, the cracks in the adobe walls of the Lijia kiln factory hid secrets that were colder than the cold wind. Li Mandun was a potter who only knew how to make clay pots, but he was involved in the conspiracy of the Japanese Shao Zuo Mitsui because of his "earth thunder pot" kiln. The potter Wang Kiln from the neighboring village died, but his body disappeared in the snow; the widow Wang who sent the pottery had a Japanese defense plan hidden in the soles of her shoes; even his father, who had been missing for many years, was tied to Mitsui's "golden kiln book". The pottery jar in the dark room at the bottom of the kiln contains the ledger of the Japanese plundering materials in Jizhong, and it is also the "spark of resistance" that the potter Wang guarded with his life. When Mitsui's bayonet was pressed against his son Goudan's neck, Li Mandun tightened his grip on the red-hot earthen pot. This time, what he wanted to burn was not clay, but the bones of the Japanese, and the darkness pressing on the plains of central Hebei. But the bloody handprints on the kiln wall, the severed hand in the pot, the yellow cloth on Potter Wang's face... These truths buried in the snow are dragging him deeper into the whirlpool little by little: Was his father's death an accident or silence? Is Mr. Wang a Japs undercover agent, or is he one of our own hiding in the enemy camp? And whose name is written in the indestructible "Golden Kiln Book"? When the earthen pot exploded, not only pottery fragments were splashed, but also the resistance spirit of ordinary people - this kiln fire will burn throughout Hebei until the day of victory.
