by Zhou Keqin
About This Novel
The novel is set in the social life of a remote rural area in Sichuan in the winter of 1979. Through the life stories of the old farmer Xu Mao and his daughters, the novel truly records the catastrophic damage caused to agricultural production and the severe mental trauma caused by the "Cultural Revolution" to the farmers. It profoundly reflects the changing social outlook of the late 1970s and foreshadows the bright and beautiful prospects that will emerge after the turmoil ends. The novel won the first Mao Dun Literature Award.
