Wang Anyi uses the form of intersection to narrate two worlds in turn. History is a vertical relationship, which is a relationship of the nature of life. The ancient Mobei, where horses galloped and fought, was full of heroism. Her bloodline comes from there. Society is a horizontal relationship. This is a relationship of the nature of life. It is intricate and intricate. The vertical relationship of history is like a tree, and the horizontal relationship of society is like the rippling waves of water. The two are interspersed vertically and horizontally to form this heavy work.
Reader comments
This book presents the intersection of history and society in a unique way. The author reflects the influence of mother's values on children by describing the protagonist's interactions with people around him. The descriptions of Mandarin and Shanghainese in the book are very realistic and made me feel the confusion of the protagonist. "We are like outsiders in the city of Shanghai." This sentence profoundly expresses the protagonist's sense of belonging. I think this book is very valuable for thinking, and I recommend you to read it.
