本书是杨云苏的散文集，记录平凡生活里的凡人俗事、人间烟火。重度猫奴丹叔叔，吃货启蒙者大伯，长于成都的战争遗孤，爱上银幕角色的吕青工，大食堂厨神冯师，“疑似初恋”小学同桌……读完让人重新爱上世界。 作者杨云苏当过20年纪录片导演，转行写作后迅速破圈，被网友誉为“祖师爷赏饭”“天赋型选手”“真正的生活家”。读杨云苏的散文，陈腐已久的感官像被激活，突然对人世又有了觉知。生活，不只是“生”下来“活”下去，还要活得从容狡黠，人间烟火为乐。

《流俗地》以跳接時空的敘事手法，為各個角色穿針引線，每一短篇看似獨立卻又連續，這些小城人物在生命狂流裡載浮載沉，薄涼活著，無聲老去。他們冷眼、坎坷、孤寂、擁有短暫歡樂，卻都像電光石火，剎那間便走到時間盡頭，看俗世的風吹透灼熱的倉皇人生。
