具體描述
An award-winning, internationally acclaimed Chinese bestseller, originally banned in China but recently named one of the last decade’s ten most influential books there, To Live tells the epic story of one man’s transformation from the spoiled son of a rich landlord to an honorable and kindhearted peasant.
After squandering his family’s fortune in gambling dens and brothels, the young, deeply penitent Fugui settles down to do the honest work of a farmer. Forced by the Nationalist Army to leave behind his family, he witnesses the horrors and privations of the Civil War, only to return years later to face a string of hardships brought on by the ravages of the Cultural Revolution. Left with an ox as the companion of his final years, Fugui stands as a model of flinty authenticity, buoyed by his appreciation for life in this narrative of humbling power.

評分##Our lives are the extension of those that lived before us. We are the remains of those who passed. We should not take life for granted because they lived for themselves but also for us. We should continue to be the extension. — for a friend 4/7/2022
評分##Million of Chinese, share the same story
評分##reading English version makes me realize some details that I didn't pay attention to when reading the Chinese version. 翻譯得很有中國特色，饅頭steamed bun, preserved egg鬆花蛋什麼的，不知道外國人能不能懂。 一字一句譯得中規中矩。可能因為英語不是母語的原因，無論如何都沒有讀原著的感覺。
