This book tells the legendary stories of 15 women.
They are talented women, writers, socialites, industrialists... They have different backgrounds and life experiences. In each of their lives, they have experienced the joy and loneliness of growing up, the ignorance and throbbing of first love, the hesitation and determination in the face of pain, the success and failure of their careers... But no matter what situation they are in, they can maintain their calmness and elegance and live out their own lives. May their experiences inspire you and me and become a beacon that illuminates our path forward.
Reader comments
In her life, we can only be spectators. Since you are a spectator, you are not allowed to comment at will.
During the Republic of China, talented people and beautiful women emerged like waves. The most familiar thing to people is "Xu Zhimo's entanglements with several women"
"Watery poplar Lu Xiaoman", "Poet's ex-wife Zhang Youyi", "Cambridge's first love Lin Huiyin" no! The world misunderstands them too much.
Lin Huiyin liked the romance of first love brought by Xu Zhimo, but he also understood the reality and would never agree to the flaming love. "If Xu Zhimo is like a strong drink that can only be drunk lightly but not greedily, then Liang Sicheng is like tea, which can please people and nourish people's hearts." Married to such a charming woman - there were many outstanding suitors around him, but Liang Sicheng guarded her for the rest of his life without hesitation. "Gentlemen in the beams, beauties in the woods" is Jin Yuelin's evaluation of them who "lives in the woods"
Zhang Youyi, an old-fashioned woman who was abandoned by her husband, lived a new life after the divorce. After experiencing pain, he emerges from his cocoon and becomes a butterfly. Her bearing, her indifference, her character...
Xu Zhimo is a "dissolute genius" in the eyes of the world, and Lu Xiaoman is a "fluttering" woman in the eyes of everyone. However, these two people, whose relationship is undecided, are just like dry wood meeting a burning fire, and they end up together. This is a love that defies the disdain of the world. From the moment we decided to be together, we were destined to hurt others and ourselves. In the end, overwhelming love cannot be worth the daily necessities of life.
Before I could fully appreciate the charms of the 15 women in the book, I was already in tears and filled with emotion.
We are readers who have finished reading the magnificent life of the talents of the Republic of China...
They are all celebrities, and they are all well-known. Are they all gold-plated?
An outstanding representative of women in the Republic of China. Like it.
The women in this book are really wonderful in their own way! Especially Zhang Youyi, although she is Xu Zhimo's ex-wife, she is more than just a background. She has her own story and her own persistence. It's really amazing that she can remain calm and elegant in such an era! I think we can all learn something from her, like being strong and independent. This book is worth reading, especially for us boys, it can help us understand girls better!
It was very interesting and allowed me to understand the society of the Republic of China from another angle and the love-hate entanglements between talented men and beautiful ladies. But what attracted me the most was the story of Lu Bicheng, who bravely made the first voice for women's rights at that time and withstood the huge pressure, in exchange for the rights and respect of our girls. Moreover, she was also very outstanding, with status in politics, business, and literature. I admired and looked forward to it.
There are so many outstanding women in the Republic of China, and I admire Lu Bicheng the most. Her ideas are 100 years ahead of the world. The four Zhang sisters are also good. I feel that their family tradition is very upright, and they have a good sense of choosing men. At least the men are not too outrageous. Zhang Youyi is a smart and strong person, Lin Huiyin is sober, and Zhang Ailing has great writing skills, but she is too individual. Xiao Hong felt it was a bit outrageous [laughing awkwardly] to marry someone else with the ball twice and not be responsible for the children. Ruan Lingyu was too miserable. She met unkind people and committed suicide for a second of regret. It was not worth it. Even if her reputation was gone and her career was gone, it would not endanger her life! Sheng Qi must have been let down by Song Ziwen, otherwise he would not have started a family at the age of 30, and finally got married. One can imagine what happened. Meng Xiaodong, Yu Fengzhi and Xiao Fengxian are their own choices, there is nothing to say. Finally, even these excellent women will be scum, let alone us ordinary people, hahaha, instant balance.

The author's writing style is smooth and natural.
Not bad, I think he deserves 5 stars
