From north to south, from winter to spring, through the Balkan Peninsula flowing with blood and honey. 8 countries, 23 towns, once again witness the fragmentation and vastness of the world. Wandering between old dreams and new sorrows, hesitating between the past and the future, Liu Zichao follows the path of modern history, crosses the line of fire, and experiences those intense love, hate and self-struggle. Queers and poets, refugees and drug dealers, murderers and victims, believers and businessmen, all appear. A travel literature that roams around, but tells stories of people looking for home. In Slovenia, he broke into a poetry salon and saw how poets used language to rebuild their homes. In the border town of Croatia, he glimpsed the afterglow of the former empire and found the elegance of the past in an old waiter. In the middle of the night in Montenegro, a young female operator was busy ordering pizza for Americans far away, but she had never tasted a bite herself; a Croatian youth living in the old dream of Yugoslavia could fix everything but himself; I met the godfather of e-commerce in Serbia, who felt the wave of globalization and saw a smooth world without any obstacles; I met a generation that grew up in the Greek economic crisis, who shouted left-wing slogans and said loudly: "We are also a Balkan country."
从北到南，由冬入春 ，穿越流淌着血与蜜的巴尔干半岛。8个国家，23个城镇，再度见证世界的细碎与广阔。游荡在旧梦与新愁之间，徘徊在过去与未来，刘子超沿着现代历史开始的道路，穿越火线，经历那些浓烈的爱恨与自我挣扎。酷儿与诗人，难民和毒贩，凶手和受害者，信徒与商人，悉数登场。一本四处漫游的旅行文学，却讲了一个个寻找家园的故事。在斯洛文尼亚，他闯入一场诗歌沙龙，看见诗人如何用语言重建家园。在克罗地亚的边城，瞥见昔日帝国的余晖，在一个老侍者身上找到过去的优雅。在黑山的深夜，少女接线员忙着为遥远的美国人订比萨，自己却从未尝过一口；活在南斯拉夫旧梦中的克罗地亚青年，可以修好一切东西，却修不好自己；结识塞尔维亚的电商教父，他感受着荃球化的浪潮，眼里的世界平滑且没有任何阻碍；碰见希腊经济危机下成长的一代，他们喊着左翼口号，大声地说：“我们也是巴尔干国家。”
