"Zhao Ziyue" depicts the chaotic, despicable and vulgar life of a group of college students in the rooftop apartment of Drum Tower in Beijing in the 1920s. The protagonist Zhao Zi said that he did not study hard and made trouble everywhere, so he was expelled from the university. He played mahjong all night long and spent all day at the banquet, drunk and dreaming. At the critical moment of life and death, thanks to the persuasion of his best friend Li Jingchun, he finally woke up, changed his ways, and started a new life.

This book truly depicts some characters of that era and reminded me of the experiences of some of my friends. Zhao Ziyue's character is very vivid, and his experience also made me think deeply. The descriptions in the book are very delicate, just like chatting with friends, and it is easy to resonate. I think this is a very valuable book that allows people to see the shadows of themselves and the people around them, and it can also bring some inspiration to people.
