Story of Life and Death
About This Novel
This is the first time that the work "The Story of Life and Death" by Juan Ramón Jiménez, winner of the 1956 Nobel Prize for Literature, has met readers in mainland China. Jimenez is one of the most famous Spanish writers of the 20th century. Here he creates impressionistic landscapes with words, capturing various subtle situations in life with the clever differences of light and shadow, almost reaching the realm of transformation. Here we have witnessed the author's vivid and vivid images, for example, "He is a quiet old man from the country, hiding his heart in his chest, like a plant in the ground, and in the eyes above are the flowers of the plant." Another example is, "Writing is the daughter of the arm, and the arm is like a long, soft, and warm flower, perched on our shoulders." The author's clever imagination is amazing. Not only that, the short stories also reveal unusual philosophies. For example, a person insisted on arranging everything in an orderly manner during his lifetime, but after his death, the grave digger left his coffin permanently crooked. Another example is, "You have a secret wish throughout your life, which is to find someone who can tell you the absolute truth of her life; you can understand her life just like you understand your own life." This is a book of lyric poems and life sketches, which may provide a little interest and inspiration for your dull life.

I chose to find and read the entire book because I came across a sentence by chance: "Now we are two mirrors, glass facing glass, the two imitating each other, like a river and the sky." There may be some differences between e-books and paper books. I feel that some words are not fluent, and the punctuation marks also affect the content very much.
