What a delicate state of mind, what a delicate writing style. I came from "Prison". While I like this book, I also have a trace of regret! In fact, I think, no matter you and Qiang, if anyone takes the initiative, he will not escape into Buddhism! What a pity!
Although there are not many words, it describes all the sufferings in the world, especially how people get along with each other, and how people face loneliness and sadness.
A good book worth reading!
