About the Book

It is a long historical story about my family members, especially the life experiences of the two generations of Chinese women in 20th century. They experienced the war of China and Japan(1937-1945), the war of communism(1946-1949), and fallen down to communism hell(1950-1999), including the tragedy of Liberation, Mao's Great Famine, the Cultural Revolution, etc. The new generation experienced Chinese Student Demonstrations of 1986 and Tiananmen Square protests of 1989. Based on the major historical events in China in the twentieth century and based on the first-hand experiences of my family members, this book describes the personal destiny of the tide of history. The book with 1.2 millions Chinese word count, is divided into trilogy, time spanning nearly a hundred years of the twentieth century, the focus of more than 60 years later, the geography involved Chishui River(means red water river) between Sichuan and Guizhou provinces, including Hejiang and Chishui counties, and then Chongqing, Beibei, Chengdu, Shanghai, Beijing, Heilongjiang, Hongkong, Taiwan and Canada. This book is about demonstrating the destruction of traditional Chinese natural farming communities, especially the gentry and intellectuals destruction by Communist Party of China, and how the communist totalitarian tyranny crushed ordinary people. The book's historical events, geography, place names, streets, local customs and practices are all true, especially on the Southern Sichuan village land system, tenancy relations, land tax, patriarchal system, the National Assembly election in 1947, political and military organizations, gentry armed castle with watchtower in Sichuan and Guizhou area before 1950, etc., all are historical facts. One of the manors, the old house of the author's family house, has long been dilapidated, but the place is still named after the old house Shihuayuan (means garden of stones) and the place names can be seen on Google Maps till now. In my book, part of the CCP's "grain requisition and suppression of bandits" in southern Sichuan 1951, can be compared with Wild Swans by Jung Chang, in which her parents reclaimed "grain requisition and suppression of bandits" in the southern Sichuan as an occupier and conqueror of the CCP experience, and my book described, but the same area at the same time, the local people's memory about occupied, conquered, was looted of looters. ---- Phoenix @ Phoenix Nest in December 2017
