摘要

FOREIGNERS who write about China usually live in big cities where the language is easy to understand rather than a slew of dialects from various places,and life there is colorful enough to be seen as a miniature representation of the entirety of China.However,American non-fiction writer Michael Meyer cast his eyes onto the tranquil rural areas– his Chinese wife’s hometown,the northeastern Chinese village named Dahuangdi,meaning a grand wasteland or Wasteland,in Jilin Province,renting a single-story house,sleeping on its heated brick bed,chatting with locals,and teaching English as a volunteer in a nearby primary school.
