A Helpless Place

In 1989, five-year-old Wang Zesheng stood at the entrance of the village and watched his mother's back disappear on the dusty dirt road. That day, he lost his father and mother at the same time - his father was buried in the loess, and his mother went to a county he thought was out of reach... This is a story about ordinary people - no miracles, only persistence; no redemption, only moving forward. It took Wang Zesheng more than thirty years to complete the transformation from an "abandoned child" to an "indomitable person". This novel and its characters are purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental and should not be imitated.
