About Book

◎A new work by Chi Zijian, winner of the Mao Dun Literature Prize and the Lu Xun Literature Prize!
◎Describe the wind and snow of nature and human nature, and cross the quagmire of history and reality!
This book is a new work by Chi Zijian, winner of the Mao Dun Literature Prize and the Lu Xun Literature Prize. It includes three short and medium-length novels written by the author in recent years that explore the history of Northeast China:
"The Sound of Drinking Soup" focuses on the Hailanpao Massacre, telling the life and death legends and love and hatred of three generations of the Harabo family on the banks of the Heilongjiang River; "White Glaze Black Flower Jar and Stele Bridge" takes the years of imprisonment of Song Huizong as the starting point, unfolding a real and illusory journey of embrace and separation, honor and disgrace, rise and fall; "The Wheel that Crushes the Oracle Bones" is based on the lost oracle bones collected by Luo Zhenyu in the late Qing Dynasty, revolving around a mysterious missing case, exploring the candlelight of the human spiritual world.
——These are three adventures that travel through the dual spaces of reality and history, and in the end you will gain comfort and courage from loyal, selfless and kind people.
Those stories hidden deep in the permafrost seemed muddy before, but now they are fresh and bright, overflowing from the earth like lava, flickering and jumping, allowing me to see the glow of art.
——Chi Zijian
