Shen Yan has a master's degree in history. He has been working in the grassroots system for 24 years. He has established himself as a pen and worked diligently, but he has always been trapped in the ceiling of his rank. He immersed himself in writing down all the information on his political achievements. He was repeatedly robbed of credit by his colleagues and criticized by his leaders. He exhausted his energy in favors and rules, suffered from illness, and owed his family half of his life. From full of ideals to repeated disappointments, from bitter obsession to complete sobriety, Shen Yan finally put aside his fame and internal friction, returned to his job, regained his scholarly pursuits, kept fit, stayed with his family, kept his boundaries in the hustle and bustle of the workplace, and found peace of mind in the ordinary fireworks. The book uses the journey of awakening of a middle-aged writer to describe the institutional ecology, the warmth and warmth of human relationships, and self-salvation, revealing the true meaning of life that "this place where my heart is at peace is my hometown."
