Inside the Official Wall: One Person's Countryside and City

Yan Haijun

93K01

A section of the road into the city for the children of farmers, a story of the floating world from a bottom-level perspective. The first collection of essays by Yan Haijun, the author of "Cliffside Report" - "In the Official Wall: One Man's Countryside and City", describes the fission and ups and downs experienced by a grassroots media person who was born in the countryside and traveled back and forth between the city and the countryside in ten years. It is not only a personal account of the history of moving into the city, but also a cultural reflection on radical urbanization. The writing is calmer and the thoughts are richer. Tell the story eloquently and do it with spontaneity. The writing is simple and the emotions are sincere. There is the honesty of having feet on the soil and respecting the earth; there is compassion for life and the sorrow of the family and the country. The almost silent words make people think deeply from a deep place.
