Book excerpt: In 2nd century BC, China, under the rule of the great Emperor Wu of Han Empire, was in the midst of Han-Xiongnu war. While Han was flourished in economy, culture, education, its most notable accomplishment was the expansion of its territory and the establishment of Silk Road. "My Soul is in the Sky" tells a story of one fourteen year old village girl, navigating through the Han empire as well as Xiongnu Empire. Her struggles and her experience give a vivid description of the lives at that era, from Emperor to Empress, from generals to shop owners, from students in the Imperial University to nomadic tribe members on Mongolia Steppe. Based on actual historical events, this book explores history, philosophy, mindset, love and marriage in ancient China through a pair of modern eyes.
