Reader comments
Yu Qiuyu's prose is very profound, and reading it feels like chatting with a scholar, which is very beneficial. The history and culture in his writing are full of vitality, which gave me a deeper understanding of ancient people and things. Especially the article "Taoist Tower" made me hate those who destroy cultural relics and feel sad for Wang Yuanlu. This book reminds me of Shi Tiesheng's "The Temple of Earth and Me". Both of them use simple language to tell profound philosophies.
In prose, Master Yu's views are novel and worth reading. And there is a lot of knowledge in it, what a good book!
