This book, narrated in the first person, tells the story of Luo Qiusheng, the narrator's uncle, and his journey as a craftsman and his love story. The narrative begins in the early 1980s when Luo Qiusheng, pursuing the girl Zhao Man, enters the Guta Glass Crafts Factory as a glassblower. It revolves around several technical competitions and the factory's development and transformation under the tide of the market, depicting Luo Qiusheng's journey from an ordinary glassblower to a master craftsman. The story unfolds along two lines: a career line and a love line. The career line is the line of becoming a "master craftsman," while the love line is the line of something that is elusive, unattainable, yet ultimately fulfilling. Perhaps this is life—full of ups and downs, never smooth sailing. In the grand scheme of history, everyone is as insignificant as a feather, powerless to control their own destiny. No matter how powerful or insignificant you are, ultimately, you are swept away by the tides of history.
