Home Village

To be published 25th April 2025

Only the strongest roots can withstand the winds of change

No one expected the Qing Dynasty to fall, least of all the people of Shawan.

Sheltered from time by the mountains that surround the village, they have prospered from tilling the rich soil inherited from their ancestors. Helmed by the genteel jostling of the Chen and Zhu clans, its feudal traditions, from foot binding to arranged marriages, leave them unprepared for the chaos about to engulf their homeland.

Amid clashing ideologies within and Japanese invaders without, the two conjoined families must lead the village through decades of transformation. As the old certainties are uprooted, a molten nation takes shape around them. But when modernity is forged, will Shawan still be a place to call home?
