About This Novel

The author spent 8 years visiting more than 100 old comrades who worked in the Central Hospital and more than 200 parents from the Yan'an period, and faithfully recorded the past events that happened in Yan'an Central Hospital as told by those who witnessed it. In the form of oral history, he uncovered the dusty history of more than 70 years and showed a panoramic picture of the establishment of a cave-style hospital on a high loess slope to its evacuation. Starting from the unique perspective of a doctor, the book uses narrative language and vivid and touching stories to review how medical staff treated diseases according to local conditions and how they welcomed the death of 3,800 "Yan'an babies" in an era when medical treatment was scarce and material conditions were extremely difficult. Come, how to use prescriptions to save children's lives, how to use the traditional skills of "looking, touching, tapping, and listening" to restore patients to health... Why do doctors and nurses with specialized medical education give up their originally superior living conditions and go to Yan'an? What transformations did they undergo to serve the revolution? What kind of life imprint did those difficult years leave on doctors, patients, leaders, writers, farmers, soldiers and other people? The book describes the boundless love between that time and that place, and recreates the Yan'an era that people who have lived there will never forget. The author has also collected a large number of valuable old photos, which vividly display all aspects of Yan'an's clothing, food, housing and transportation, and truly reproduce the unique characteristics of the medical and health work of that era. They are important historical materials for studying the Yan'an revolutionary period.
