About This Novel
It wasn't until this moment when he was half-kneeling in front of the hospital bed, staring blankly at his mother's face, and listening to the intermittent moans of the patients that he realized what nurturing grace was. In this sweltering ward late at night, the face that used to be lively, full of kindness, always frightening and preaching to him, was now a foot away, shrouded in great weakness and extreme pain. It was so dusty that no light could be seen, and it was still wrapped in thin white, white, green, green and red medical plastic tubes, with a frown and messy hair. Although she hadn't eaten in eight or nine days, her forehead looked wider than before she got sick. However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that it was weak, caused by the thinness of her cheeks. It was not plump or full, and was caused by the medical liquid.
