Reader comments

For example, there is a story in the book about a man who turned into a cricket and started fighting crickets with others, which was particularly interesting. This book not only has a wonderful story, but also made me understand the thoughts and culture of ancient people, which is very meaningful. I think this is a good book worth reading, and I recommend it to you!
