Synopsis

He was a talented poet in the Northern Song Dynasty and a major figure in the history of Chinese literature. Some people say, "There is a Su Dongpo in everyone's heart." Throughout his life, he looked down on wind and rain and went his own way. No matter he was in poverty or wandering, he was able to turn what others saw as ordinary and trivial into his own calmness and chicness. This biography reproduces Su Dongpo's life, allowing us to look down upon the vicissitudes of life and keep our hearts at peace amidst the vagaries of fortune.

Reader comments

This "The Biography of Su Dongpo" is really well written! Su Dongpo's life is really admirable. Even if he encounters so many difficulties, he can always remain optimistic. I especially hate the people who always set him up, their behavior is really despicable. Fortunately, Su Dongpo was not knocked down by these people. His mentality of looking down on wind and rain is really worth learning from. This book helped me understand Su Dongpo better and also taught me many principles of life.
