夹边沟记事

The Ditch maybe can give the lighter and lighter age and people in this age a head-on blow. Suffering has not walked far, and the witness of history is still alive. When we read in Escape, Luo Hongyuan failed his escape due to tiredness and gnawed a small piece of skull left by the wolf in desert, maybe death is no more merely a number, but the passing of a life equal to ours. In the Ditch, the cases of desperate struggle on the verge of death can be seen everywhere. No matter they died or survived, it was equally shocking by the sight. The truthfulness of the text shows us another living state beyond our lens. Besides shock, it may lead to more exploration into life, human nature and history.
