About This Novel

How did a childhood sweetheart leave "me" until he died? How did my father, who had been indifferent since childhood, make "me" experience deep love? The novel tells the story of "my" growth affectionately, and all the pain and joy that "I" experienced during my growth. It makes people feel heart-pounding and sad when reading it. I chose to go back to my hometown town one winter. On the day I went back, I was wearing a military uniform and was very conspicuous in the town. There were only a few hundred people in the town, and they all looked at me in surprise. I found that when I came back after five years away, the town was still as lazy as before, but many people no longer recognized me.
