86K01

Kate Winslet starred in the original film of the same name, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress. It describes the shocking love of a 15-year-old boy that suddenly appears and suddenly disappears, and the soul-piercing reflection on World War II is even more shocking. Love, history, and human nature are intertwined, giving the novel multiple charms; this is also a novel that is close to readers. It embraces huge secrets, and the suspenseful characters and stories firmly capture our hearts. People who have read it say: "I read it in one night." Who is whose reader? Carrying the cross of history and growing up hard, those guilt and betrayal have been hidden in my heart for half a lifetime. Some smells are engraved in fate. Love is a sense of smell. There are some things that we didn't understand at the time, and we can't understand them later. Some books may not bring about substantial changes, but you must go through them when you are blossoming in your life.
