The novel tells a sad story in a lyrical style, interspersed with melancholic childhood, a boy who skips school, his longing for love when he grows up, and the disillusionment of his marriage. There is a slight difference in the names of parents in the article. The word "father" is a written word, and the hostess treats him with respect and distance; while "mother" is a colloquial, kind, and even intimate word.
In the past, when I read "Letter from a Strange Woman", I was always moved to tears without realizing it, but I was also a little surprised. How could there be such a stupid woman in the world? Perhaps the charm of this novel is that even if you know it is false, you are still led by the author. I also admire the author. He is obviously a grown man, but he describes women's psychology in such detail, as if he understands himself better than women. But I'm a little dissatisfied. As a female author, shouldn't I know myself better than he does? Why do we need a man to "spoke for", so we have this novel that expresses our feelings directly.
