This is a collection of essays on Jiangnan scenery with plants as the protagonist, involving memories, research, customs and crafts. They are not just a simple introduction to what a certain plant looks like, but they highlight the "material use" of plants related to people's daily life, and the emotions generated in people's lives after this "material use" is connected with people. Because it is based on personal experience and hands-on experience, the writing is true.
Reader comments
This book is very lifelike! The author connects plants with human emotions through memories, textual research, customs and craftsmanship, allowing us to have a deeper understanding of the customs and customs of Jiangnan. Moreover, the content in the book is based on personal experience, which makes it feel very real when reading. It reminds me of the book "Human Plants", which is also about plants, but the style is different. However, I don't really like those explanations that are unclear or superficial, and I feel a bit irresponsible. Overall, this book is worth reading, especially for those who like plants or Jiangnan culture.
