Full Description:
At the height of Mao's infamous Cultural Revolution, two boys are among hundreds of thousands exiled to the countryside for 're-education.' The narrator and his best friend, Luo, guilty of being son of doctors, find themselves in a remote village where, among the peasants of Phoenix mountain, they are made to cart buckets of excrement up and down precipitous winding paths. Their meager distractions include a violin, as well as, before long, the beautiful daughter of the local tailor.
