In 1993, the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union was still lingering, and chaos and hope were intertwined across the vast Eurasian continent. Zhou Juju, a young painter with an artistic dream, boarded the famous and dangerous K3 international train and rushed to the Repin Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg to seek the temple of art.
However, this long journey of six days and six nights is not a staircase leading to a palace, but a cage leading to the wilderness of human nature. The train roars through desolate Siberia. The magnificent and endless scenery is outside the window, but a terrible storm is quietly brewing inside the carriage. A group of brutal robbers were like lurking hungry wolves, showing their fangs - robbery, violence, and fear swallowed up the entire train in an instant.
The rules of the civilized world suddenly break down on the railroad tracks. The unarmed Zhao Dingliang was originally only used to capture light, shadow and beauty with his brush, but now he was forced to face the most naked barbarism and darkness. He is both a bystander and an eyewitness, using the sensitivity of an artist to record every thrilling moment and the extreme test of human nature.
Can he survive despair? Where will his artistic dream go after this bloody baptism? This is a life-changing journey, a shocking novel based on real historical events, about traveling through a real hell on earth on the way to the Holy Land of Art.
Reader comments
The carriage is like a condensed stage of human nature, with the greed and bloodthirsty of the robbers, the fearful silence of the passengers, the tragic cries of the rebels, and the perseverance of the diplomats and criminal police. In the intertwining of despair and glimmer of light, the human struggle in the abyss of desire is written.
I have read several books about painting, and the stories are all set in Europe and the United States. This one is set in the chaotic period after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and it takes a lot of courage to go to the Repin Academy of Fine Arts. After reading the latest chapter, "Dad, Mom, if I give up now because I am afraid of these 'possibilities,' then 'regret' will become a nail that will be hammered into my heart for the next few decades. That feeling, cutting flesh with a dull knife, is more uncomfortable than any failure." I understand.
It's been a long time since I've read such a satisfying novel. The plot is exciting and smooth, and it's worth savoring.
The story written by the author is so real, with a heavy feeling close to reality, and the description of the text is very delicate, which is worth reading carefully.
The creativity of this book is very unconstrained, especially the word "dream" is added in conjunction with the time of the story. For the sake of dream, Zhou Juju has no regrets. Dream is such a beautiful word!
It not only shows the victimization experience, but also focuses on the difficult journey of the Chinese police's transnational arrest of criminals, from the dilemma of limited criminal investigation technology to breakthroughs in transnational cooperation. The plot of chasing the murderer in 2019 fully demonstrates the power of justice that never fails.
Through a train, you can see the chaos and hope of an era, and it is a very realistic portrayal of the social landscape after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The description is really good. The people of that era and the environment at that time are as vivid and real as before our eyes.

The plot is roaring forward like a train, with robberies, escapes, and human struggles advancing layer by layer, and it can't stop at all!
