Reader comments
This book reminded me of the time when I first became a mother. The hardships Li Bai went through in order to realize his ideals resonated with me very much. Especially his interaction with his daughter Pingyang after he returned home from Taoism was particularly real. Pingyang's surprise and shyness when she saw her father reminded me of every detail of my own child's growth. The author portrayed Li Bai's image very vividly, and his poetry creation was closely integrated with his life experience, which gave me a deeper understanding of this romantic poet. This book is rich in information and fluent in writing. It is worth reading!
