Axiang's sixty years were rich and dramatic. Her mother died when she was ten years old. She dropped out of school to do farm work and devoted herself to supporting her brother's studies.

Reader comments
The writing is smooth and the storyline flows smoothly. Using Axiang's life experience as a summary, it tells the story of the experiences of two generations.
The way the group portrait is written distracts from the lighting of the protagonist. The inner description of the protagonist is a bit simplistic.
Although the article is short, it is well written. After reading Axiang's experience, I couldn't help but think of the various life experiences of all kinds of people I had seen and heard a few decades older.
Everyone is subject to the trend of the times. How many people can be truly free? Is A Xiang, who pursues freedom, the epitome of most people's hearts?
This is my second five-star review on Tomato. As a serious literary read, this book has nowhere to go. This is also a pity of the times!
