桃花扇
Translated by Google Translate
It's a really great book. I've read two stories and they are both great, but I don't know why there are so few reviews and not many people read them. The greed of human nature, the turning of glory into dust, the pain and jealousy of not being able to love, the perseverance of faith in the heart...
"The Peach Blossom Fan" is set in Nanjing in the late Ming Dynasty and tells a poignant love story. The love entanglement between the protagonists Hou Fangyu and Li Xiangjun, as well as the historical changes they have experienced, constitute a magnificent historical picture. In this work, Kong Shangren skillfully used opera expression techniques to closely connect the fate of the characters with the fate of the country, showing the style of an era. I was attracted by the characters in "The Peach Blossom Fan". Kong Shangren created a number of vivid characters through delicate brushwork. Hou Fangyu's loyalty, bravery, and wisdom, and Li Xiangjun's beauty, talent, and tenacity all moved me. These characters not only have distinctive personalities, but also have profound historical connotations. They struggled and struggled in the torrent of history, and finally became the epitome of an era. I was also moved by the love story in "The Peach Blossom Fan". In this work, Kong Shangren closely connected love with the fate of the country, making this love story full of tragic colors. The love between Hou Fangyu and Li Xiangjun is not only the expression of personal emotions, but also the worry about the fate of the country. They met and fell in love during the war, but were separated because of the rise and fall of the country. This kind of tragic love makes people lament the impermanence of fate, and also makes people have a deep respect for that era. I was shocked by the historical connotation in "The Peach Blossom Fan". Kong Shangren showed the vicissitudes of an era through his depiction of Nanjing in the late Ming Dynasty. In the form of opera, he told a story about loyalty, love, and faith, giving us a deeper understanding of that era. At the same time, this work also conveys a sense of worry for the country and nation, making us cherish today's peace and prosperity even more.
It's really good-looking. The story is very novel. The plot is ups and downs and fascinating. Excellent short article.
Nice. I hope it will be made into a TV series. It's too short. Still want to see
It's so beautiful and awesome. I hope the author can publish more similar books.
Each short story is short and concise, and indeed there is no lack of excitement.
What a great novel! Just a bit short
Various short stories about solving crimes. Good. Read them all.
A few short stories, very interesting, I like them very much
This is the first suspense novel I have read. I personally think it is okay. The design of the case is very attractive, but the investigation process is not very rigorous and there are still many loopholes. Overall, it is very good.
