About This Novel
The author writes about the northern countryside in the 1980s. The author's hometown at that time was undoubtedly poor. A family occasionally bakes garlic pancakes, and all the children in the alley are so greedy that they sneeze; and the long and harsh winter wind and snow can always make the children's feet, hands, faces, and ears swollen, chapped, and even pus. But describing the poverty and coldness of his hometown was not the author's original intention, it was just the background. The author's original intention was to find a thread to string together the affection between people in his hometown during that time like beads. Times are tough, but the simple beauty is always there, and it's nothing more than ordinary. The countryside is never simple and transparent. It is not, after all, a glass container filled with clear water.
