About This Novel
After fifteen years, Li Xiuwen, winner of the Lu Xun Literature Prize, released his latest novel "Tiger Descends from the Mountain". In 1999, a tiger on Zhenhu Mountain broke the tranquility on the eve of the millennium. The tiger descends from the mountain, threatening the production safety of the steel plant at the foot of the mountain, watching the rise and fluctuation of desire, and the story unfolds. The ups and downs of the times and the gaze of wild beasts, through the art of fiction, are interpreted in Li Xiuwen's strange and intense brushstrokes to interpret a fable about the world and the human heart. The roar of tigers is the echo of history, passing through the forest tops, cliffs and the sound of wind, reaching straight to the soul. The wild smoke and overgrown grass, hugging the trees without warmth, the world and the earth being unkind, treating all things as stupid dogs, illuminate the essence of human nature, the struggle between man and himself has no final outcome, victory or defeat, it is tragic and magnificent.
