Anotácia knihy

Rooted in the landscapes, folklore, and rhythms of rural northern China, this lyrical literary work offers an intimate portrait of childhood memory shaped by nature, family, and cultural inheritance. Set around a secluded woodland cabin near Bohai Bay, the narrative unfolds through a series of evocative recollections-starlit nights, open fields, riverbanks, and the seashore - where the physical world and the imagined one quietly converge.

Guided by the presence of a grandmother and her storytelling voice, the narrator recalls encounters with animals, myths of immortals, and traditional tales passed down through generations. These memories, rendered in poetic and contemplative prose, reflect a childhood steeped in Chinese cosmology, rural life, and an enduring respect for the natural world. Folklore and lived experience intertwine, revealing how stories once told to a child continue to shape identity long after childhood has passed.

Written from within Chinese cultural experience and presented here for an English readership, the book offers a reflective, atmospheric reading experience rather than a conventional narrative arc. It invites adult readers-particularly those interested in translated literature, cross-cultural perspectives, and memory-driven prose-into a world where personal remembrance becomes a bridge between cultures, generations, and places.

Beautiful colour illustrations take the reader into the story.
