Ordinary Way in the World

The sand of the times is like a mountain falling on everyone's shoulders. We don't talk about grand narratives, but only about the joys and sorrows of small people. History is not a monologue by a great man, but a dialogue between you and me—the aunt buying breakfast on the street, the programmer working overtime late at night, the grandfather guarding the old house and refusing to leave... Every figure who has lived a serious life is worthy of being seen. There are no heroic epics here, only the light and ups and downs of ordinary people. History is never a torrent, but the trajectory of countless water droplets. Pay attention to this book and salvage those neglected lives together.
