About This Novel

"Flower in the Mirror" is a long fantasy novel from the Qing Dynasty. It tells the story of Tang Ao and his party traveling overseas by boat. During the journey, they visited different countries and experienced various adventures. These countries are all reflections of various phenomena in reality, such as the daughter country where the status of men and women is completely reversed, the heartless country where the rich are unkind, the hypocritical and cunning two-faced country, etc. The author presents the various social issues of his own era, the values ​​he advocates, and the good and evil in human nature in a symbolic and exaggerated way, making it both fresh and interesting to read, and also thoughtful. Therefore, some people compare this book to "Gulliver's Travels in the East".

🐲Recommendation index: ★★★★☆ 🐲Era: Qing Dynasty 🐲This book can be said to be a very interesting ancient fantasy novel. After the protagonist goes to sea, he goes to various exotic places, including the country of adults with auspicious clouds, the country of tall adults, the country of daughters where the identities of men and women are interchanged, and the country of people with dog heads. . . . . . Countless interesting and magnificent imaginations make up this book. Although the Chinese literature and the temple plot in the second half may be a little boring, it is still very interesting. Even though it has been a hundred years, it is still shocking. Highly recommended! !
