"How can a family struggling between funerals and birthdays let the seedlings in the cracks of the rocks break through the cold winter?"
"Roots and Wings" is a realist novel set in the mountainous countryside in the 1990s. It tells the story of how the arrival of a new life, Xiaohe, brought the hope and struggle of the Lin family in the shadow of a sudden change in the family. The joy of new life is intertwined with the heaviness of old trauma, exploring traditional family concepts, the cycle of life and death, and the resilience of the bottom class. Through the contrast between the warmth of neighbors and the undercurrent of family, it shows the ethical dilemma and the glory of human nature in China's rural areas in the changing times.
Intention: After climbing those thousand mountains, we will see the sea. Even if there are thorns under our feet, we will keep walking.
