This book is a novella by Qiu Huadong, taken from the eponymous chapter of the 2024 China Good Book Award-winning novel, *The Empty City Chronicle*. The seven caves of Mogao Grottoes are like seven pieces of amber, sealing away millennia-old secrets. *The Seven Caves of Dunhuang* presents seven stories that respectively depict the eternal paradox of worldly involvement and detachment, transforming violence into the nirvana of faith, exploring the suffering and awakening of women in turbulent times, interpreting national righteousness and reincarnation within the interweaving of time and space, transforming the dissipation of material things into the eternity of spirit, and using political marriage to solidify the cultural ties between Dunhuang and Khotan. The modern perspective on Cave 17, the Library Cave, and the "dialogue" between researchers and Master Hongbian allow the guardians and creators of cultural relics to resonate across time and space.
