Flowers and Platypus

About This Novel

This book is divided into three chapters according to the writing theme: Flowers and Strangers, Flowers and Gardeners, and Flowers and Journeys. The author mainly records what he saw, heard, and felt while traveling around the world, as well as his insights when taking care of the garden. He also made associations based on this and made horizontal analogies between the scene at that time and a certain kind or type of plant. The "flower" and "platypus" in the title of the book are actually representatives of two types of things. The two may seem unrelated, but in fact they are intrinsically related. The main text is usually divided into two parts. One part talks about the experiences and insights, and the other part talks about the relationship between people and plants or the characteristics of the plants themselves. The former part focuses on the expression of prose and essays. Although the latter part introduces plants, the wording is still relaxed and humorous and not rigid. There are separate subsidiary parts besides the main text: First, there are hand-drawn illustrations at the beginning of the text, which aim to show the relationship between plants and the plot in the text. Sometimes they are anthropomorphic displays of plants, and sometimes they are reproductions of plot scenes; second, there is a handbook at the end of the text, which includes photos of plants taken by the author, simple hand-drawings, etc., Used to show the appearance of plants in the text or reproduce travel scenes. It not only increases the atmosphere of reading, but also is a perfect complement to the main text (pure text description).
