Reader comments
I think this book is really good! It contains works by many famous artists, such as Sima Xiangru, Jia Yi and others, and the content is very rich. There are also annotations, translations and appreciations, so that people like me who don't know much about ancient literature can understand it. I especially like the works of Sima Xiangru. His poems are so majestic and shocking. But I kind of hate those parallel rhymes that pursue form too much. They feel too exaggerated. Overall, this book is still worth reading.
