About This Novel
The story of "Satan Tango" takes place in a dilapidated small village. A dozen villagers with nowhere to make a living staged a drama of alcoholism, adultery, voyeurism, betrayal, dreams and broken dreams in the rainy and muddy late autumn season. Indifference and numbness cruelly killed all living things, until the appearance of two liars ignited everyone's hope, leading them to take the repeated dance of death towards the bright future they imagined... The wonderful structure and unique language style of this book make it one of the most mysterious works in the history of literature, and a miracle in the history of translation.

The decline of human nature: In the vacuum of faith, people become "slaves", eager to be deceived. (The writer is a "China fan")
