About This Novel
A "sci-fi semi-autobiography" by a Nobel Prize-winning female writer - What if you, as an adult, took in your adolescent self... "In high-rise residents, birds fly along invisible fixed routes between windows, and the flying birds cast curious and thoughtful glances , road traffic and the world are far below. I am not like this, I am the kind of person who always looks up and imagines what will happen at high places..." A global disaster has come to the world, the city is paralyzed, food is scarce, and citizens have moved to the suburbs, desolating the city. Children who grow wild form gangs in the concrete ruins and do evil. A woman left behind suddenly gained the ability to walk through walls. She took an adolescent girl and a puppy with her and insisted on being the last survivor here... This can also be said to be a fable about female growth and survival.
