The memoir offers a firsthand account of Göran Malmqvist's two-year experience in Sichuan Province, where he lived at Baoguosi Monastery and conducted dialect research. It vividly recounts significant historical events, including the Chinese Communist "liberation" of Chengdu in December 1949, and details his subsequent interrogation by authorities. Through personal reflections and observations, the book provides a unique perspective on the cultural and political landscape of China during a transformative period.
