   A cup of tea, its smoke faint; a touch of moonlight, gentle and soft; slender shadows shimmering in the flowing light. Before words are spoken, a gaze lingers; old years are reflected on the green paper. The fragrance of ink settles at the bottom of the inkstone; the wind blows past the small building to the west; a thousand sails have passed, each a poem. People seem like strangers; hearts have never wavered. This book is rich in emotional descriptions, has a tight plot, and is closely interwoven with history; it is well worth reading!
