Synopsis

This story begins in a tiny village on the North China Plain called Yuan Family Cemetery Village. As a child, I often heard the village elders say that our village got its name because, before Liberation, our ancestors had guarded the tombs of the wealthy Yuan family, generation after generation, right here. While guarding them, they also gave rise to us unfilial descendants. Which Yuan family, thirty li away, were they talking about? Back then, we children had no idea. But there really had once been a vast stretch of graves north of our village. They say that during a later political movement, a group of young students arrived in horse-drawn carts and leveled them, turning the site into a lush wheat field. But what I want to tell you about now is not really any of that. I was born in a village like this, and grew wildly, like a tree no one had ever pruned, until I was fifteen, or perhaps sixteen. Then, on a pitch-black night of wind and rain, I left. I never returned to the village after that. Now, at last, I have come back. What I want to tell you quietly is that it is not my body that has returned, but my soul. This must be what it means for a soul to return home. Right now, I am standing at the southern edge of the village, in front of my family's courtyard, now long fallen into ruin. I want to think carefully about everything that happened back then, but somehow I cannot quite recall how it all unfolded. Still, I know that memories can never be erased. I will do my best to recall them, bit by bit, and tell you. Of course, in the end, I suspect I will tell you more than just that.
