Synopsis

In 1982, a severe drought grips northern Shaanxi. Thirty-year-old village teacher Wang Pu squats on a cracked field ridge, clutching the betrothal money his mother has wrapped in red cloth. The last unmarried man of his age in the village has no idea his life is about to change that very night. When he rescues a young woman in a Lenin suit from a collapsed grain depot, the English copy of Jane Eyre in her suitcase tears open his stunted emotional world. When a village teacher’s love for a “troubled girl” becomes a target for the whole commune, can the panting hidden in the rhythm of the work songs and the scratches among the sweet potatoes in the cellar prove love’s weight better than a marriage certificate? And the tin pencil case full of love letters will eventually fall silent at a public denunciation meeting, its silence more deafening than any sound. In Part Two, Passion on the Plateau, a different kind of youth brings even more twists and turns. You won’t be able to stop reading…
