Keep it up, it looks great!

This is a true-to-life novel depicting the lives and work of some educated youth from Shanghai, Kunming, and Sichuan during the "Down to the Countryside Movement" in 1969. While describing the beautiful environment of Xishuangbanna, the book also truthfully records the unpredictable climate of the primeval forest and the danger of the primeval forest swallowing everything. A group of young people around 16 years old left their homes and families in all corners of the country to gather in this unfamiliar borderland. Unfamiliar environment, unfamiliar people, unfamiliar way of life, in a state of lack of medical care and medicine, even hunger, a kind of exile, left to fend for themselves, they tenaciously lived and grew up with full enthusiasm and political passion... These teenagers are now all over 70 years old. If their children read this article, will they be able to understand how their parents, relying solely on their faith, managed to fight against nature and survive in such harsh conditions...?
