The author integrates the customs and customs of the tropical country and the political situation, and people reminisce about the past, and every page they turn is like they have been pushed out by time, watching themselves at that time.

In every sad undertone of survival, there is a stubbornness of human nature. The ups and downs of each individual are permeated with the author's caring look back at history and the distant view of realpolitik.

October Literature and Art Good Book Special 丨 It stung me and made me cry

This book is an important masterpiece of Hrabar, which has been brewing for twenty years and has been changed three times. As the author himself says "I live for it and postpone my death for writing it". The novel poetically tells the story of Han Jia, a packer who has worked in a waste paper recycling station for thirty-five years, who picks up precious books from the waste paper pile, hides them in his home, and holds them in his chest. He drank beer and "sizzled like candy" those "beautiful words." It's a sad story, the melancholy of love, the melancholy of culture. Han Jia, a poet who combines workers, drunkards, and book fans, later punched himself into a waste paper bag, and he flew to heaven on those books.

Czechs say that Milan Kundera's articles are too deep and heavy to read, while Hrabar is like an acquaintance sitting at your table in a beer hall, telling countless strange stories, humorous and philosophical, which is the pure Czech taste.
