A little bee flies throughout the summer The most subtle thing about "Little Bee" lies in the repeated appearance of an image. At the beginning, a bee landed on his shoulder, and he gently asked her to leave; later he met her, whose name contained "honey", and her English name was Melissa; when they parted, she turned around and left, her back as light as a bee flying away. It has three echoes and progresses layer by layer. It is neither deliberate nor sensational, but it makes people's hearts tremble after reading it. The bee symbolizes a short, light and leaving no trace of farewell. The twenty-day encounter was like a bee stopping on the shoulder to bask in the sun for a while, and then flew away without looking back. Good imagery is not for decoration, it is embedded in the bones of the story. "Little Bee" did it.
Only those who have experienced it can write about it The texture of this novel comes from countless real details. The dishes she couldn't finish in the cafeteria were put into his bowl, he rushed to wash the dishes and said "don't hurt your hand", the hand secretly held behind his back when taking a group photo, the sideways look she gave him when singing folk songs - none of these details were "made up", they were all things that truly grew in life. The author did not deliberately sensationalize, but honestly wrote down what happened in the twenty days one by one. But it is this "honesty" that gives the emotional foundation of the entire novel. After reading this, you will believe that there really is a man named Hu Qiming and a woman named Feng Xiaomi who loved each other seriously for twenty days in the summer in Beijing.
