Jialing River Chronicles
by Liang Ping
About This Novel
The Jialing River is almost the only river that can be identified as having two sources and flowing thousands of miles in cursive writing. Standing at the pier at Chaotianmen in Chongqing, one can see a mighty line from left to right, inserting the last and most lyrical stroke into the heart of the Yangtze River as her most graceful ending. This is a long humanistic scroll, a long spiritual journey, passing through the three provinces and one city of Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, and Chongqing, with stormy waves crashing on the shore and romance all the way. But this final writing is the memory of my life and my eternity. My first cry was the sound of the waves of the Jialing River. One kilometer before the Jialing River merges into the Yangtze River, the river is calm and gentle. The occasional rapids and shoals have not changed the gracefulness and mystery that it has cultivated all year round. There is a factory on the shore with a very resounding name. It is called Chang'an. A factory can actually have the same name as the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty.
