About This Novel
In terms of content, Shen Shengyi's chapters on plants focus on the examination of the names and facts of plants and the combing of literature and classics. In terms of writing style, they are known for their clear and elegant brushwork that interprets deep thoughts. The thick historical materials are intertwined with the moving emotions. The first volume, "Journey in Search of Flowers and Willows", is a travel diary of plants at home and abroad; the second volume, "Snipers Busy in the Grass and Trees", is a plant prose about flowers and trees (including a group of plants of the lunar zodiac year that have unique paths); the third volume, "Between the Leaves" "The Pages of Books" is about plants and trees with plant books as the narrative object; the fourth series, "A Quasi-Farmer's Writings", is about agricultural cash crops, agricultural books, and essays about farming - this series is a new field beyond his previous writing about flowers and trees. Xu Hongquan's paintings of flowers and trees are simple and elegant, bright and wild, noble and elegant, and the flowers are sentimental. Shen Wenxu's painting shows two flowers blooming, one on each branch, which combines with the beautiful idea of flowers blooming in a dream pen and moistening grass in an inkstone pond, hence the name "Collection of Flowers and Inkstones".
