《*後的土司》故事發生在兵荒馬亂年代的長江三峽邊的一個土家山寨。伍娘是一個啞女，但聰穎過人舞技絕世；無意中撞進山寨的外鄉人李安因偷吃土家祭祀的供品受到重罰；土司覃堯看似罰他卻是救他，並許諾將伍娘許與李安。伍娘出嫁前夜按照祖先賦予的初夜權，將自己奉獻給了神。土司覃堯作為神的化身得到了伍娘但與此同時才發現自己原本深愛著這個女子，從此陷入深深的痛苦。
李安不能接受山寨的習俗，將對伍娘的喜愛化成了厭惡和仇恨，不斷給純潔無辜的伍娘以傷害，土司覃堯卻因信義而只能默默地忍受煎熬無法相助，火焰一般的愛恨情仇之間，美麗的伍娘以她的生命完成了*後的舞蹈。李安逃離山寨，覃堯在長江邊堵住了他，命運將指向何方？結局給讀者留下了無盡遐想。

作者簡介
葉梅，女，土家族，中國作協主席團委員、著有小說集《花燈，像她那雙眼睛》《撒憂的龍船河》《五月飛蛾》《後的土司》《九種聲音》《種愛》《回到恩施》《妹娃要過河》，散文集《我的西蘭卡普》《朝發蒼梧》《大翔鳳》《從小到大》《穿過拉夢的河流》、評論研究《葉梅研究專集》等。有多部作品被選載、翻譯、獲獎。葉梅的小說對民族文化的表現，對於現代性的批判和反思，其提供的角度給人以啟示，她並不是以哀怨的姿態或者以批判姿態去誇張地表達民族文化與現代文明之間的裂痕，而是採取一種chao越的立場，極力展示民族文化、地域文化本身的美感，構成了對於中國現代文學傳統的一種重要反思。
Ye Mei, a female writer of Tujia ethnic nationality, is currently a member of the presidium of China Writers’ Association. To date, she has published novels, novellas, and prose that, amongst many others, include The Melancholy Dragon Boat River, The Moth in May，My Xilankapu , River Threading through Lameng. Her critical studies include “Studies on Ye Mei”. Many of her works have been awarded literary prizes and been reprinted and translated into other languages. One can discern in her novels an inspiring perspective in her expressions of racial culture and her criticisms and reflections on modernity. Rather than a plaintive or an overly critical voice that deplores, in an exaggerated manner, the ruptures between ethnic culture and modern civilization，she has approached her themes from the standpoint of transcendence, with the utmost demonstration of the beauty of her ethnic and regional cultures, which constitutes a significant reflection on the modern Chinese literary tradition.
