ABSTRACT
Chi Zijian’s novel White Snow Crow is about the pestis in Northeast China from the autumn and winter of 1910 to the spring of 1911, focusing on the living conditions of people in Fujiadian, Harbin, under the shadow of the pestis, and thus connects the vicissitudes of Harbin in the development of modern Chinese history. Re-reading this novel in the context of the post-epidemic era not only allows us to immerse ourselves in the specific temporal and spatial fields described in the text with an immersive reading mindset, feel the heavy impact that the disaster has brought to the people of Northeast China, but also provide us with a different perspective to observe the current social reality. In particular, the social problems shown by the novel through the pestis and the description of ordinary people’s life experience under the plague still deserve further discussion.
