The market, landscape, officialdom, and literary world were all of his deep concern.

The individual and society, the sublime and the secular, are so closely intertwined that they are indistinguishable from each other. His radiant talents and swirling philosophical thoughts are like the swaying waterfalls in his hometown hitting the rocks and blooming with bright light.

Some people say that writing novels is a game, writing poetry is like high jumping, and writing prose is like walking. Some people say that the joy of writing novels is the joy of building a house brick by brick, nail by nail, and the joy of writing prose is the joy of immediately imaging and taking pictures with a camera. I think, whether it's walking or taking photos, there are still things that require attention and technique. So what should I pay attention to and what techniques should I use when writing prose? Looking back and thinking about it, I still have it. I would like to summarize it in four sentences: first, write narrative prose like a novel, second, write lyrical prose like a poem, third, write travel notes like an essay, and fourth, write a review like an essay. This book contains 17 narrative essays, 24 lyrical essays, 30 travel notes, and 29 reviews (including preface and postscript). Including 4 articles written by others about Liu Wenqi, there are 104 articles in total.
