        Ai Wan’s Daffodil Ball

        by Huang Beijia

        After several years of conception and more than one year of writing, Huang Beijia, a famous children’s literature writer, has recently published her new dedication named 'Ai Wan’s Daffodil Ball' in Jiangsu Children Press. The story is set in China in the early 1980s. At that time, the country was like a sleeping giant who was about to wake up. It was easy for people to get lost in that restless, unstable society. This is the setting for the story of the eight-year-old Aiwan. She grew up quietly with her brothers and sisters in an ordinary family in the small town of Qingyang. The story of Aiwan's upbringing is the same as that of many other girls during that period. Her ordinary life style was peaceful and low-key, just like the daffodil in the conch pot, which would be satisfied even with just a little water, all the while sending out a gentle fragrance. Her philosophy of life was learnt from her own life experience in this family, instead of being taught by others. Hard and restrained as her childhood was, we could still imagine that once she grew up, she would discover the wings to fly out into this wide world, and her wealth of experiences would become her fortune, helping her to create a bright, amazing future.

        by Zhou Jian

        This novel mainly describes the difficult transformation of the lower classes in Northern Jiangsu from spiritual desolation to the establishment of beliefs in the decades between the 1920s and 1937 when the Japanese soldiers massacred civilians in Nanjing. Focusing on the small town of Wujiaji in Northern Jiangsu and the maturity of the main character Zhang Rujin (pet name Nafu), the novel highlights the historical change of the common people from paying no attention to national affairs to devoting themselves to the cause of fighting against Japanese aggressors. It can be called the annals of the Chinese lower society in the first half of the 20th century. It also offers a profound and objective analysis of the living condition and spiritual world of the lower classes in China during that turbulent period to the extent that this is a rare epic in China about the life of common people on the Northern Jiangsu Plain.
