Whose Thoughts Are There?
by Wang Yonghao
About This Novel
In the eyes of ordinary people, poetry makes reality unreal, or because reality cannot be found in life, people turn to poetry. In the eyes of those who write and read poetry, poetry is the greatest truth in people's hearts. When life cannot satisfy people's wishes, people can still settle their souls in poetry. As Brodsky once said: "Poetry is a way of resisting imperfect reality and an attempt to create an alternative reality." "Whose Thoughts" is Wang Yonghao's first modern poetry collection, and it is also his attempt to write about the truth in his heart. Over the years, Wang Yonghao has traveled all over Europe, and the 140 poems included in this book were all written during his travels. This collection of poems covers European history, geography, music, painting, etc. The poet looks at the ancient miracles on the European land with the eyes of others, and uses foreign languages to weave a delicate Western picture. Wang Yonghao specializes in Chinese classical literature and has in-depth research on Western poetics and literary theory. He is well aware of the similarities and differences between Chinese and Western poetry. His sensitivity and appreciation of the two cultures are also reflected in the lines of the poems. This collection of poems is also a collection of his many years of thinking and exploring poetics.
