About the Book
The author recounts in first-person perspective the six-year journey of a Shanghai educated youth sent down to the countryside fifty years ago, from the bustling metropolis to impoverished rural areas. The arduous life and heavy farm labor proved a severe test for every educated youth.
Through vivid details of daily life, the author authentically portrays the rural years of that era's educated youth. This work serves as both a personal chronicle of fate and struggle, while also offering a glimpse into the rural conditions and spirit of the times.
All illustrations within the text are drawn by the author, creating a rich blend of words and images.
