Synopsis

This is a novel about the work and lives of people in the forest region of the Greater Khingan Mountains. Through the experiences of two ordinary families over several decades, it depicts the sweeping changes in the region across more than seventy years, from the start of its development in 1952 to the end of large-scale commercial logging in 2014. Set against the backdrop of its times, the novel recounts how the people of the forest region struggled to build a livelihood and devoted themselves selflessly to their work. For the sake of the country’s development, two entire generations gave their all, braving bitter cold and scorching heat to transport timber to every corner of the nation and provide vital support for its construction. They enjoyed moments of glory, but also endured the lowest points in life. In the end, however, they were cast aside by the times.
