About This Novel
Bai Xianyong's new work! Describing my father and mother and that era of great sorrow. This is a song of life written with blood, tears and sincerity by the master of Chinese literature Pai Xianyong. He uses words to take us through the corridors of history and experience the troubled era of the Republic of China. The book specially includes photos that the author has collected for decades, restoring the true temperature of a family and preserving those figures that have not been wiped out. "Eight Thousand Miles of Road with Clouds and Moon" is a collection of Mr. Bai Xianyong's new prose works in recent years after "The Tree Is Like This". In the book, the author either reminisces about his parents, misses old friends, expresses his feelings, or discusses literature and art. Although he writes about personal memories, it is fundamentally about the vicissitudes of Chinese history in the twentieth century. The book is divided into three major parts. Part 1: Eight Thousand Miles of Road, Clouds and Moons - The feelings of family and country, describing father, mother and that troubled era; Part 2: Colorful Colors - chronicling characters, describing the friendship between teachers and friends who have been close friends for many years, including Brigitte Lin, Xia Zhiqing, Xi Song, etc.; Part 3: Suddenly Looking Back - Reading Reflections, using more than sixty years of literary accumulation to describe the in-depth understanding and perception of words. Mr. Bai Xianyong uses words to take us through the historical corridor, looking at the life story of an all-powerful old general, and clearly experiencing the troubled era of the Republic of China. His writings reveal beauty in their plainness, and deep feelings in their restraint.
