  • Description

    The Cave: Haoyu, Zhuang Yun, and the Tree of Life This type of subject matter is rare in China, with a clear theme and ingenious conception. It possesses both literary value and allegorical elements, allowing readers to not only learn about this period of history but also to more realistically and emotionally follow the protagonist in experiencing the cruelty of war and the brilliance of humanity. The title "hole" is a pun, referring to an "air-raid shelter" but also serving as a gateway to an "other world." The "hole" itself is a brand new, unknown world. The picture book also "hides" various Chongqing elements, such as the "spiritual fortress", the mountain city trail, the Daqiangba Water Tower, the Juelin Temple Baoen Pagoda, the banyan tree, the Yangtze River Cableway, the light rail, Hongyadong, the Cathay Grand Theatre and other new Chongqing "city labels" are also cleverly integrated into the pictures of the other world.
