The Complete Works of Liang Shiqiu: Dreams in the Sophora Garden (hardcover)
by Liang Shiqiu
About This Novel
When Liang Shiqiu was 71 years old, his first wife, Cheng Jishu, was living in the United States. An accident suddenly claimed her life. Liang Shiqiu was so sad that he wrote the touching book "Memories of Sophora Garden". At the same time, the manuscript also included prose about missing his old friend and missing his hometown in his later years. It is deep, rich, and touching. It combines the characteristics of literati's prose and scholar's prose. It is quoted from other sources and rich in connotation. It advocates conciseness in writing, pays attention to style, and pursues the artistic realm of "the most brilliant tends to be dull" and the organic unity of elegant style and emotional penetration. Dreams recall the past. Liang Shiqiu, a literary giant of a generation, used time as the warp and the love of the couple as the weft, and weaved the fragments of the husband and wife's fifty-year mutual life into a tearful picture of sorrow and joy. Because I have loved, I am infatuated; because I have lost, I am sad!
