Cow Learns to Speak

Bok av Deng Xiangzi
Through the perspective of an old cow named "e;Huchagu"e;, the book shows the waste farmland overgrown with weeds, the empty houses with no residents, the ruins of the withdrawn country school, and the left old people and children in the country. In this way, the book presents the fate of the places of life and the characters that have been forgotten in the process of urbanization.The author places his melancholy which cannot be dispelled on the work. However, like the old cow that learns to speak, the author's inside pastoral dream and poetic feelings have never changed, and the conversation between him and the outside objects will never stop.
