The Biography of Su Dongpo (Complete in Three Volumes)

The description of Su Dongpo's optimistic and open-minded character is very realistic. He is a man with outstanding literary talent and a kind heart who thinks well of everyone. He only wants to do things without plotting against others, but he will inevitably be plotted by others wherever he is. Fortunately, there are still many kind and conscientious people, so good people will still be rewarded.

Compared with "The Biography of Su Dongpo" written by Lin Yutang, I prefer Su Shi written by Xu Baoyun. This kind of Su Shi is motivated yet lazy, careful yet clumsy, loves to play and eat, is kind and sincere, can be smitten by lust, and can be vain and proud. This kind of Su Shi is more vivid and vivid, a real person, not a saint in poetry. As the story comes to an end, it seems that I have accompanied him through this life. He has been rich and poor, happy and sad, full of friends and no one cares about him... Looking back at the desolate place where I came from, there was neither wind, rain nor sunshine.

This book is so well written, it vividly depicts the life of layman Dongpo and his character. It also comes with poems and articles by Zizhan, whom I had rarely seen before. I also learned about the history of the Song Dynasty. It was very valuable, gained insights, knowledge, and cultivation, and also learned the principles of life 👍👍👍

I read this book for the biography of Su Dongpo, but it turned out that this book is a set of historical novels. The background of the novel means that many of the contents recorded in the book are not true enough. When reading, I found that this judgment is even more correct, because many of the contents in the book do not come from historical records, but are the author's subjective narratives. Reading this book, what we can understand is the Su Dongpo that the author wants us to understand. If you are interested in Su Dongpo and want to know more, it is better to read historical biographies by professional scholars.

No one is perfect. Although the Master is talented, he cannot govern the city. He lived a life full of ups and downs, accompanied by three ladies, experiencing both hardships and joys, calm and calm. I have friends all over the world and my poems shine all over China. Although Shenzong was capable, he was too selfish and wasted money on Anshi. Sima Guang was an able minister in governing the world. Empress Dowager Gao tried her best to turn the tide, but God did not bless the Song Dynasty. When the villain took over the power, the shame of Jingkang was not far away. Good book. Gain knowledge and enjoy 👍👍👍

The unprecedented talent left a splendid cultural treasure in the long river of history. However, character determines destiny, and life is full of ups and downs!

This is a novel, this is a novel, this is a novel! Fictional content accounts for a large proportion, especially some emotional content, which is complicated and cumbersome. As a novel, it is quite lively and interesting.

The historical context of this book is clear, and the historical commentary is also profound. The main experiences and deeds of the biography are written touchingly. The sincerity and innocence of the Master's life are more fully reflected. The poems and poems are integrated together, which is very good. It's just that some of the deeds in the biography are mixed with the author's conjecture, and the description of the emotions of the author and his wife is not only redundant, but also makes the whole book look like a novel.

It shows a true, innocent and knowledgeable man who has read poetry and books. He is open-minded and never harms others, and he never thinks that he has been harmed by others. He is really a stupid person. Only such a person is the most magnanimous person at all times and in all countries! It's rare now.

This book shows Su Dongpo's talents and emotions in a grand background, allowing me to see a more real and three-dimensional Su Dongpo. The author Xu Baoyun's description is meticulous, vividly showing Su Dongpo's bumpy experience in officialdom and his literary achievements. It feels like chatting with Su Dongpo, very enjoyable!
