That small garden hides all the past memories of my mother. No one ever knew. In Alaska in 2000, the sister Meredith, who is like a lioness guarding the family, is tired of trivial matters and has long lost the desire to communicate with her husband who lives with her day and night; the sister Nina, who is like an eagle wandering around the world, is a war reporter. Faced with the proposal of her photographer partner, she fled back to her hometown with complicated thoughts; the unsmiling mother always sits barefoot on a bench in the winter garden and refuses anyone to approach. The death of their father brought them together to relive the fairy tales that their mother had not finished telling for thirty years. In Leningrad in 1941, German troops approached the city, supplies were cut off, and the city became an isolated island. 700,000 People died of starvation. First, her father was arrested for writing poetry, then her husband was drafted to the front line, and then her sister died while digging a trench. Only Aniya, her mother, grandmother, six-year-old daughter and four-year-old son were left struggling to survive in the bone-chilling cold Leningrad. The story begins with a fairy tale and spans 65 years, from war-torn Leningrad to today's Alaska. The two sisters guessed the beginning but not the ending. This story brings these three women together. The moment her mother blurted out a secret that had been buried for many years, it shook the foundation of the family and changed everyone involved. Every once in a while, a writer comes along who navigates the complex and layered world of the human mind. This time, it's Kristen Hannah who gives us an exciting story with an unexpected ending.

"The Age of Innocence" is the representative work of the famous American writer Edith Wharton, which won the 1921 Pulitzer Prize. The main plot of the book takes place in the upper class society of New York in the late 1870s and early 1880s. That was where Wharton spent her childhood and youth, where she grew up, entered society, became engaged and disengaged, and finally married Edward Wharton of Boston, where she spent her first years of marriage. Forty years later, as a novelist, she looks back at the society that raised her and restrained her. Her feelings are complex, with both cordial attachment and sober criticism. The writer compared the upper class society in New York at that time to a small pyramid. It was sharp and slippery, making it difficult to gain a foothold on it. At the top of the tower, there are only two or three families with real aristocratic blood: the Dagonet family in Washington Square is an authentic county family; Mr. Van der Luyden is the direct grandson of the first Dutch governor, and his family has married several nobles in France and England; and the Laning family, who has married the Count de Grasse. They are the highest class of the upper class, but they are obviously in a declining stage.

In this book, Professor Yallon recalls some important moments in his life, some of which were turning points, some of which were full of glory, and some of which remained unknown and open. But one thing in common is that we can glimpse from the text the fear and conflict that this old man experienced over the years, and how he bloomed flowers of meaning from the dust of life. If we say that existential therapy is a spiritual technique, this seems to underestimate Professor Yaron's rich academic background. However, if we say that existentialism is a specific operation method, this seems to have lost its smart philosophical background. I prefer to regard existential therapy as "Tao", and reading these theories and Professor Yaron's growth story evokes human resonance that even transcends the professional field.
