Eternal in My Name

In 1942, a devastating drought struck southern Hunan, plunging the remote mountain village of Tangjia'ao into utter famine. In the isolated, barren mountains, generations of villagers had meekly accepted their lot, barely surviving disasters, heavy levies, and banditry. Ten-year-old Tang Tianfang watched his sweet, well-behaved six-year-old brother die of hunger and cold. The boy was buried in haste, and the small, lonely mound in the family cemetery became a scar etched into Tang Tianfang's heart. This final parting shattered the boy's innocence. He stopped submitting to fate and, amid hardship, formed an unwavering resolve: to break free from generations of poverty through his own efforts, protect his loved ones, and take control of his own life. Told through Tang Tianfang's life and spanning decades of upheaval, this novel chronicles an ordinary man from the mountains struggling and striving amid the currents of a chaotic age. In a barren world, he fights hardship with his flesh and blood and protects those he loves through sheer determination, showing the indomitable strength of ordinary people. It also hopes to bring warmth to people of this era through Tang Tianfang's life!
