The Sorrow of Brother Broken-Finger" is the latest international publication of short stories planned by Yang Pingdao as a writer for many years. This book is about time, memory, and the fight against oblivion. It represents the spiritual exploration of an independent filmmaker, who, through seven short stories, sketches out an understanding and perception of beauty, life, and the era. Becoming a writer was once the most distant star in his heart. Reflecting on those moments filled with fantasy and passion is like touching the ripples of the marks of time.
This book is not just a review of the past but also a conversation with one's younger years. "Growing up is a process of forgetting, allowing memories to be opportunistically self-altered and retold." This book has become his way of preserving personal thoughts and ideas, his effort to combat oblivion.
In this book, Yang Pingdao shows his attitude towards life, as well as his love for creation and writing. Rather than intending to write history, it's more about touching the living flesh and blood of this era, picking up tiles from the ruins of history, tiles that are covered with the smoke and fire of human life.
