About This Novel
"Dayan River" was published in 1936. It was Ai Qing's first poetry collection and included 9 poems. The poem "Dayanhe - My Nanny" recalls the poet's nanny and expresses the poet's gratitude and praise to the working people. This poem established Ai Qing's position in the history of new Chinese poetry. It has been translated into dozens of languages and is deeply loved by readers. The other poems are mostly the author's memories of his apprenticeship in Paris, an intuitive feeling about local politics, culture, ideological blending and competition, and express the author's desire for freedom and equality. "The North" is a collection of poems created during the Anti-Japanese War. The works not only reflect the oppression and poverty of the North, but also recognize and praise the northern people's will to survive. Ai Qing's poems have simple language, simple poetic meaning, deep emotions and bright rhythm. They are the best works of modern new poetry. He makes good use of symbolic things to express his hatred and helplessness towards reality without losing hope. There is warmth and brightness flowing in his poems.

It's so beautiful, not because many people can't see it because of the book coins. It's just too expensive. Book coins also cost money, and I'm almost running out of money. 😭😭😭😩😩
It's rare to feel like an old friend at first sight; it's even more valuable to stay together for a long time.
