Nobel laureate Handke's creative new work is an epic journey into the interior of France and an image of French social reality. Written for young people who cannot gain a foothold in society: Go to the wilderness to find your true self. At the beginning of the novel, on a beautiful day in early August, an old man living in the suburbs of Paris left his peaceful suburban residence in Paris, an "uninhabited bay" surrounded by forests, and went to his country house in Picardy. As he walked, observing his surroundings, he occasionally mentioned a young woman he called "the fruit-stealing girl" who seemed to be on a similar journey to northern France. This "fruit-stealing girl" is 25 years old and has been "eager to escape" since adolescence. She just returned from Siberia and immediately went out to find her mother. In retracing her footsteps (whether real or imagined) through the interior of France, the narrator is writing about her in his own way, and thus the novel is born.

After five years, Ryu Murakami published "The Story of Loss", his first novel in his later years. Follow Murakami Ryu into the labyrinth deep in consciousness, and travel through a "lucid dream" in the ruins of life's memories. Tender nostalgia and compromise flow throughout the novel, and his thoughts are as weak as babble and full of self-doubt. This is the first time in Ryu Murakami's nearly fifty-year writing career that he has taken off the armor of verbal violence and opened the door to his inner world to readers for the first time. This book is similar to a psychiatric clinical record, but also has the characteristics of a private novel. One day, "my" domestic kitten suddenly spoke and directed "me" to an actress named "Mariko". The actress and "I" seemed to be old friends, but we both had completely different memories of the past. The actress took "me" to a restaurant "Cherbourg" that was clearly closed in my memory, and then her mother suddenly appeared in front of her. Mixed with various voices, a large number of memory fragments began to intertwine and emerge: my mother's experience in North Korea, the alienation of the painter's father from the family, "I" and the actress's travels in Rome, as well as German shepherd dogs, azaleas... "My" consciousness fell into a maze, wandering in the ruins of memory, unable to distinguish between past and present, reality and imagination, and the boundaries between advancement and retreat. Finally, guided by my mother's voice, "I" finally remembered the reason why I became a novelist: "Depression is like a twilight that never ends. I can only rely on fiction to continue to survive."
