"The Bad Son" is a novel by Bai Xianyong depicting the world of homosexuals.
The "bad children" in the book are vulnerable children, abandoned on the streets, driven from their homes, repeatedly runaways, or simply misunderstood. They gather in semi-dark, indulging in love for money and submitting to the elders who set the tone for their fleeting destinies. Ultimately, they must find warmth in the harsh, intense tenderness of their fateful fate. Hearing a tale of this hidden kingdom, they are stunned; these children, though depraved and perverse, are also emotionally rich and willing to sacrifice; the stories of their predecessors often serve as a collective identity for them. These lost children, without collars around their necks, survive thanks to incredible events wrung from their own depravity. "Mr. Guo," a hedonist in the sex market, captures images of every "newcomer" as they arrive. His "Youth Bird Collection" is a perpetual album, preserving the perilous yet deified youth.
