On the evening of Saturday, May 13th, 2023, I slept in until the afternoon. Later that night, I began reading "In the Heat of the Night" by Yu Hua and finished it in one sitting, taking nine hours to complete using WeChat Read. I had many thoughts and emotions, and intended to write an article about it. However, I kept putting it off until I forgot most of my initial impressions and ultimately cancelled the idea.
As a fan of Yu Huas works, "In the Heat of the Night" is one of my favorites. I was struck by the poignant depiction of familial relationships as a protective but infested garment, as well as the portrayal of a grandfathers life after losing his ability to work. I was left with the realization that humans are, ultimately, still animals - creatures wearing the masks of civilization.
