Download eBook The Vast Yellow Land (EPUB, PDF)

The re-start of "Yellow Earth Literature". This book describes the life course of a group of people on the loess land after the reform and opening up. Taking the growth of the younger generation as the main line, it describes all kinds of sadness, all kinds of bitterness, love and hatred, joys and sorrows in their growth process. They also described the hardships and life tragedies of their parents' generation.
This book mainly writes about the growth trajectories of three characters. Starting from the same village, three people took three different paths (study, join the army, and work). The different life trajectories of the three protagonists are used to express the social changes in the forty years since the reform, and the three different migration paths of the three people from the countryside to the city. Destiny is entangled, with struggle, cooperation, jealousy, love, and intermittent mutual influence. Right or wrong, success or failure, in the end there is a sense of reaching the same goal through different paths. The opening scene of a funeral introduces various characters in the village. A wedding triggers a secret fight within the family. A tragic fate caused by organ donation. A tragic song about the beginning of love. An accident changes fate. A passionate love inspired by youth. A sudden illness ordeal. A workplace intrigue. A business competition where the winner is the winner. A sinister plot in middle age. It records the material changes and mental journeys of all classes in the changes and development of society, as well as the exploration of human nature. We come to this world to walk through it, like a crucian carp crossing a river, short and bumpy, filled with joys and sorrows, ups and downs. The clouds and smoke pass by, floating and rising, and the waves are unstable.
