To Live (Alive, 活着), one of the writer Yu Hua's (余华) masterpieces (代表作), narrates the sufferings of Xu Fugui (徐福贵) in the context of an era that witnessed the civil war (内战), Three-anti and Five-anti Campaigns (三反五反运动), the Great Leap Forward (大跃进), the Cultural Revolution (文化大革命) and several other social changes. Xu Fugui and his family continued to suffer through to the end. In fact, all relative left him successively, leaving only the old man and an old cow to live together. As such, To Live tells the story of a person's life. This is a life testimony of an old man who has experienced the vicissitudes and sufferings of the world. It is a drama that interprets the sufferings of life. The novel's narrator I gained a leisurely career when he, at a young age, went to the countryside to discover folk songs. In that just arrived summer season, I met the old man named Fugui, and listened to him talk about his bumpy life experiences. Yu Hua won the French Order of Arts and Literature (法国艺术及文学勋章) award for this novel in March 2004.
