Reader comments
Li Bai's character and behavior are really unique, and his poems are also integrated into the story, making people more aware of his talent. This reminds me of "The Biography of Du Fu", which also tells the life of the poet, but the style is somewhat different. "Li Bai Trilogy" pays more attention to the historical background and the fascinating plot, while "The Biography of Du Fu" focuses more on the interpretation of poetry. However, they are all worth reading!
