《Wolf Totem by Jiangrong》.pdf
狼图腾(英文版) 作者:姜戎/著 葛浩文/译

As Chen Zhen looked through the telescope from his hiding place in the snow cave, he saw
the steely gaze of a Mongolian grassland wolf. The fine hairs on his body rose up like porcupine
quills, virtually pulling his shirt away from his skin. Old Man Bilgee was there beside him. This
