Delicacy and atmosphere
Read it for the second time, combining popular and elegant, writing with delicacy and atmosphere
I have just read a few chapters. When describing the preparations for the construction of Tianxiang Garden, the author also presented the history of Shanghai to the readers bit by bit. The ancient rivers, city gates, street names, the number one fish in the south of the Yangtze River - the four-gill perch, etc., Are very familiar to a person who grew up in Shanghai.
Like it very much
It's quite good to read. Wang Anyi's books look warm and gentle, and the scenes are well written. The ending is sad, as sad as the era.
I thought it was a bit anticlimactic and the ending was rushed.
The feelings are very delicate.
Love her books.
