Living in the Forest
by Swallow
About This Novel
This book uses fairy tale-like vivid language to vividly describe the author's life in a rural forest cabin and the delicate changes in his inner world. It shows profound themes such as man and nature, life and death, loneliness and companionship, and explores multi-level life propositions such as a sense of fate, animality, food philosophy, and dreams. The author Yan Zi draws inspiration from this wooden house and integrates personal experiences, emotions and thoughts into it, forming a unique poetic attitude towards life. After reading this book, you will find that human beings can learn to reconcile with themselves in nature, find eternal meaning in the passage of time, and build a richer spiritual world through the experience of impermanence in life.

I have to say that this is a very contradictory article...
She was able to buy a house by herself in Japan's seaside woods, and it was designated to be in such a place. Although there were neighbors, they were all elderly people. In such a place, it seemed acceptable during the day, but at night she felt that all negative emotions would be amplified, so she had the idea of ending her own life. So you see, she can buy a house in a sparsely populated place, live and write alone, go for a ride on a bicycle, and breathe the best gift of nature - fresh and pollution-free air, accompanied by loneliness. She seems to have a quite positive attitude. However, when she is good, she will have sudden thoughts, think about messy things, and even end her life. Is this too negative again? I believe that people are social beings and should not be separated from the world for too long, otherwise they will have some decadent and negative emotions, which is not good for physical and mental health. So just leave that forest hut as a resort for occasional leisure time...
