Bloody Kite and Tricolor Flag

Introduction to the work "Blood Kite and Tricolor Flag" In 1789, the cannon fire at the Bastille tore through the early morning in Paris. The dilapidated aristocrat Julian holds a cracked fleur-de-lis playing card and struggles between the royalist conspiracy and the torrent of revolution; Celestina, the daughter of a printer, records the times in type, but is lost between reason and passion; Gabriel, the son of a weaver, grows from a rebel to an imperial general. The copper button on his chest is engraved with "Motherland", but he does not know which France he should be loyal to. During the past thirty years, the fate of the three families was closely intertwined with the majestic history from the French Revolution to the July Revolution. Behind the velvet curtains of aristocratic salons, conspirators used playing cards to deduce dynastic changes; beside the underground printing press, the ink of banned books dried together with the blood of leaflets; under the gunfire of the expeditionary force, copper buttons passed through the sun of Austerlitz and the black snow of Moscow, and finally fell into the mud of Waterloo. This is a masterpiece that combines the epic spirit of "Les Misérables" with the human depth of "The Red and the Black." In the fire of reason and violence, ideals and betrayal, everyone is ashes, and everyone is a phoenix in nirvana. When the tricolor flag covers the wings of the blood kite, who is the real writer of history? "We think we are making history, but history keeps reshaping us."
