"Horqin Banner Grassland" is a long masterpiece by the famous writer Duanmu Hongliang. It is included in the volume of the "Northeast Exile Literature Historical Materials and Research Series" edited by Zhang Fugui. The book has nineteen chapters in total, with the Horqin Banner grassland as the background, telling the story of the fateful changes of several generations of the Ding family in Erluhu Village. The protagonist Ding Ning in the novel left his hometown in an era of great changes. After receiving unprecedented scientific and cultural education, he returned to his hometown full of enthusiasm and determined to carry out transformation. In the conflict with the traditional ideas of the old era, Ding Ning soon fell into an inextricable contradiction. At the same time, he also saw that his hometown on the grassland contained profound vitality, but the resistance to untying this knot came precisely from his own family. After going through various tests, Ding Ning gained a profound and true understanding, and also experienced renewed growth from the inside out. The work uncovers the trauma of thousands of years of spiritual slavery for the people at the bottom of society, and vividly reveals the subtle psychology of various characters.
