About This Novel
The Book of Songs, the source of Chinese poetry. What has it been saying for 2,500 years? "There are plums, but they are actually beautiful! Please help me, a common man, to bring good luck to them." This is a girl's song hoping that her lover will marry her as soon as possible: the ripe plums will fall down, and only 60 to 70% of them will remain on the branches. The ripe plums fell down, leaving only 20 to 30% of the branches. The ripe plums fell down and no one was left on the branches. If you propose marriage, come quickly, don't wait until you are too late... (Translated by Yi Zhongtian) Confucius said that the Book of Songs means "thinking without evil". The Book of Songs is a folk song, a song for ordinary people, a voice that echoed in our hearts 2,500 years ago. "The Book of Songs" was painted by the painter Hu Yongkai and translated by Yi Zhongtian. This time, two young children, who are a combined 150 years old, will use light, shadow and words to recreate for us the innocent memories of the Chinese people 2,500 years ago.
