If you have not yet bought the original copy, make sure to purchase it before buying this unofficial summary from aBookaDay. When the Japanese invade the Ling family's small village and threaten to destroy their peaceful life of rice farming, the family must find a way to keep all of its members intact. Ling Tan and his family are devoted to upholding morality in a setting where morality matters less and less. As patriarch, the responsibility falls on Ling Tan to protect his large household, and sometimes this means trying to understand how the ways of the new generation may be safer than the ways of the old. Relying on a mixture of old wisdom passed down from their ancestors and new knowledge shared by the youngest of the family, the family struggles to survive. Only by keeping his heart open to new ideas and yet holding fast to his ancient connection to his land can Ling Tan preserve his family. Available on PC, Mac, smart phone, tablet or Kindle device.
