Family Saga Fiction
Song is a nobody-just a food delivery worker from a village in Northeastern China-but her son, River, is a little wonder.
At the age of three, he toddled to a piano and tapped out his favourite song. Finally, at the age of eleven, River is invited to study with a preeminent teacher in Beijing.
But in the chaos of Beijing Railway Station Song loses her grip on River's hand and is unable to find him after a desperate search.
Over the next days, weeks, and eventually, years, Song and River fight to forge a path back to each other as they carve out new lives that carry them farther apart.
