在云南某个与世隔绝的偏远山村，生活着两位遭人遗弃的苦命兄弟，为了生存，哥哥十岁到煤矿当了童工，七岁的弟弟成了村里的放牛娃，而县城里年迈的父母和年幼的弟妹，却以另一种烈火般的姿态生存着。哥哥二十二岁不幸死去，弟弟接过生活的重担：背煤。在煤矿塌方中逃过一劫后，重新创业赡养父母，供养弟妹和哥哥生前养子。就在生活朝着希望的轨道行进时，养子被人夺走，心爱的姑娘外出打工杳无音讯。弟弟踏上寻找之路，也踏入以都市为中心的社会结构中。然而，一连串的变故也接踵而来：父亲死亡、母亲病重、都市遭骗、养子甘愿留在别人身边，妹妹遭遇不幸沦落风尘，心爱的女人染上毒瘾走向毁灭，自己也在一场灾难中失去了双腿......
这是一部另类的现实主义作品，作者写黑色幽默式的生存苦难，但残酷中却处处包含着温情。关于成长锤炼，关于社会底层，关于忏悔救赎，关于家庭、幸福、人性，作者用博大的人文关怀，讲述了让人无法回避的残酷真相。然而，这部小说并不是要拷打人性的罪恶，而是试图诠释个体生命灵魂深处真正的善----这也是这部现实主义力作的精华所在。
