    Don't miss this new book. The protagonist is an ordinary person in a prosperous city, a temporary worker with no establishment, no ability to guide the country, and no intricate network of relationships. However, he has achieved a magnificent transformation by relying on his perseverance. The novel is close to reality, very down-to-earth, not cluttered, not brainless, and worth reading.
