Overview:

A policeman's diary recorded an explosion on Valentine's Day. Two lovers who are fed up with mediocre daily life decided to seek self-destruction by making a bus explosion. They died and several victims and policemen died too but liars and thieves survived. What is the meaning of life?

Taking his writing to new heights, A Yi expands on the common Chinese identity and mentality to reveal a ubiquitous, primal state of survival, one detached from and overlooked by the cultured many: that of the masses.
