Pretending to Be Idle: Essays on Shallow Archeology and Non-archaeology
by Xu Hong
About This Novel
The prose essays of the famous archaeologist Xu Hong are collected for the first time and are divided into nine volumes. They come from articles he published in newspapers and periodicals. They are either true remembrances and commemorations of teachers and friends, or dedicated letters to his dear daughter, or small blessings and troubles in daily life, or emotions when life suddenly looks back, or rigorous writings. The clever self-preface, other prefaces and book reviews, the Q&A interactions with fellow bloggers, and the true expression of rationality and sensibility in interviews with the media, which have nothing or slightly to do with "archaeology", highlight the image of an archaeologist with sincere feelings and charming personality, making it a good read.
