About This Novel

"The Story of a Wooden Comb" is an affectionate work that spans sixty years. It uses a handmade wooden comb as a clue to connect a timeless love affair that was washed away and reunited by the torrent of the times. In an old alley in Suzhou in 1957, Lin Xiaomei, an 18-year-old textile worker, and Gu Changming, a student from the Academy of Fine Arts, met under a locust tree and promised each other a lifetime. However, family differences and family responsibilities forced the lovers to separate. She married as a married woman, and he left for a foreign land. Only the wooden comb engraved with lotus flowers became the only witness of youthful love. Eighteen years later, fate brought them together again. At this time, she was a single mother who had lost her husband, and he was a successful university professor. The two people seem to be completely different from each other, but they still cannot resist the deep love deep in their hearts. However, the prejudice of the times, the obstruction of family, and the torture of illness made their love path full of thorns. From black hair to white hair, from locust blossoms falling to locust blossoms blooming, they spent their whole lives waiting to interpret what "the cattails are as tough as silk, and the rock does not shift". This work depicts the ups and downs of fate and undying love of ordinary people in a special era with delicate and gentle brushstrokes. It is not only a story about waiting and perseverance, but also a hymn dedicated to all souls who believe in true love and have the courage to persevere. When you open this book, you will surely burst into tears for that period of deep love that has been forgotten by the times, and you will believe in your tears that true love can transcend time and space and be eternal.
