About This Novel
I have two mothers. One is my biological mother Liu Yan, and the other I call her mother Eva. She is a Russian expatriate living on Sun Island on the Songhua River in Harbin. In fact, Eva's mother's name is very long, called Elena Ivanoeva. But in the mouth of an authentic Chinese boy like me, it was too difficult to roll my tongue and pronounce such a long string of syllables, so I left the beginning and the end, omitting the middle, and the name became Ewa. Adding my customary name of "Mom", it was Eva's mother. My name is Qin Sanjiu. My parents gave me this name because I happened to be born on the coldest day of the year. Although I call Eva my mother, she has no blood relationship with me. The reason for this is related to a mysterious glass house. When I was young, my family lived on Sun Island.
