This book is a collection of essays on the theme of tea and beauty by the famous Japanese aesthetic master Soetsu Yanagi. Collects Liu Zongetsu's articles on tea ceremony, tea utensils, aesthetics, etc. In the book, Yanagi Zongetsu conducted a unique and profound discussion on the theme of what is beauty and what is the tea ceremony, and discussed beauty from multiple perspectives. Liu Zongyue believes that to deeply understand the heart and essence of beauty of tea, one must touch and observe it at close range, and observe the beauty through famous tea ceremony utensils. He believes that only by looking at tea ceremony and tea utensils with a free vision that is not bound by fixed ideas can tea enter a freer world. In the article, he also advocated the common principles of Japanese beauty, commented on tea drinkers of the past and present, and put forward pertinent and serious requirements for modern tea drinkers. A true tea person should encourage himself as a creator. As far as vision is concerned, boundless freedom is the most important thing. What most tea drinkers lack today is this kind of freedom, tea state, and a deep connection with the virtue of simplicity, but not with arrogance. The tea ceremony is also a lesson in poverty. --Liu Zongyue.

A Moveable Feast (translation Classic)

One of Hemingway's most popular non-fiction works, a desk classic for the young literary bourgeoisie, was translated by famous translator Tang Yongkuan. The translation is well-known, supplemented by precious black and white images of Paris in the 1920s and 1930s. The people, things, and objects described by Hemingway are classically reproduced in different visual texts. "If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris when you were young, then it will be with you wherever you go for the rest of your life, because Paris is a moveable feast." There are countless fictional or non-fictional works about Paris, and the "movable feast" written by Hemingway is perhaps the most lingering and lamentable among them. In the 1920s, Hemingway and his newlywed wife lived in Paris as journalists stationed in Europe. This book records the memory of this sojourn. However, this book was written more than thirty years later. In other words, the "scene" of the feast has long since disappeared. The author and readers are only tracing those past years in their memories. Those people and objects have been out of focus and deformed through the lens of time. All personal memories about Paris are blended into a common historical memory of Paris. As the saying goes, "Paris will never end."

His prose, mainly philosophical essays, is world-famous for its rich ideological connotation and is known as the "treasure house of ideas."
