How about Jia Pingwa's book "Shaanxi Opera"?
With Dihua Street, Jia Pingwa's hometown where he grew up in China as the background, Shaanxi Opera vividly shows the shock and changes brought to the countryside by the historical transformation of society through the evolution of a place called Qingfeng Street in the past 20 years, as well as the birth, illness, death, joys and sorrows of all people on the street. This novel is narrated from a crazy angle. There are two big families in Qingfeng Street: Baijia and Xiajia. The White House has already declined, so the evolution of the Xia Jia family has become a symbol of Qingfeng Street, Shaanxi and even rural China. Jia Pingwa's writing is both traditional and modern, both realistic and lofty. His language is simple, but his heart is rough. His "Shaanxi Opera" successfully imitated a real state of daily life with exquisite narration and intensive details, and described and interpreted the contradictions and puzzles faced by the changing local China with childlike feelings. Behind the noise of his works is sadness and excitement. Perhaps, after all the solid things have vanished, we can only face great silence. This lament in Shaanxi Opera is a tone of contemporary novel creation and a vivid portrayal of this great era.
