Seeing the bleak world, listen to a sigh! The work tells the endless details that the author recalled during his fifth year in Kyoto. Perhaps the most touching thing about Kyoto is the "passage". Every minute and every second is so beautiful that it makes people heartache. The author is already very familiar with the streets, people, and even the dialect here. Sometimes, you can also help foreign travelers with directions, or explain some local issues, and receive them as friendly as possible with a "local" attitude. And more often than not, the author knows that he is the traveler and that all this does not belong to him. All she could do was to be grateful that she was in the endless passage of thousands of years, and that she would be able to remember her for a long time after she left. "This year is my fifth year in Kyoto. Except for my hometown, there has never been any place where I have stayed for such a long time. The strangeness, shock, joy, and emotion I felt at many moments have now calmed down. When I came back from school at night, I rode my bicycle towards Mount Daimonji. There was always a wonderful moon in the sky, and it illuminated The clouds were clear and transparent, and it was like I was the only one in the world. I wanted to talk and remember everything I saw, but without exception, it was like the ripples of passing water and the traces of quicksand, completely impossible to clean up. "Su Zhenshu, a guest in Kyoto, sees deer in the mountains all year round.

In childhood, Herborist and Lin Churan met under the stage in a small town. Later, Herborist also met Shen Jiacheng, a good friend of Chu Ran, and she was suddenly moved. Subsequently, Baicao, who entered No. 1 Middle School, rejected Ji Tianmin, who had been secretly in love with her in junior high school, and buried her feelings for Shen Jiacheng deeply in her heart. She looked at the close and intimate relationship between Chu Ran and Jia Cheng, and she just silently worked hard in her heart. Churan was at odds with the other girls due to family matters and personality. Herborist sincerely defended her, but was often secretly jealous of her. Because Herborist believes that only his excellence deserves his family status...

"Earthly Dream Floating Bridge" is a collection of essays carefully written by Su Zhenshu, a writer living in Japan, for ten years. With meticulous and affectionate writing, it describes the fateful journey of more than ten characters such as Kobayashi Icha, Yosei Wumura, Higuchi Ichiyo, Kawai Xiaomei, etc. Among them are Matsuo Basho and other wanderers, Shimazaki Fujimura and other writers, Takehisa Yume and other painters, as well as ordinary women such as Lu Nu and Xiaomei. The ups and downs of the world are all in it. "The Floating Bridge of Earthly Dreams" penetrates the dust and describes the coldness and warmth of the world in a delicate and bone-chilling way. Even though these characters cannot fit into this floating world and are not free and easy, there are many lovely and admirable things revealed between the lines. Life is sad and lonely, but at the same time it makes people feel nostalgic and loved. As a human being, what is it that is worth remembering and devoting your life to?

This is the first collection of correspondence essays by Su Zhenshu, a writer living in Japan, who has been living in Kyoto for nine years. The author spent seven years recording the beauty of Kyoto's mountains and rivers, what he saw and felt during his travels and reading, and echoed the flow of time in the ancient city of Kyoto with elegant and delicate words. A thousand-year-old ancient capital, the words are as clear as the face.

The road ahead for the two of them is not smooth. Song Ximing, who had failed in love, had some psychological shadow, and Song's father was unwilling to let go easily. Give up the betrayal or insist on going on? After all, the problem of two people needs two people to bear it.

This is Su Zhenshu's new work after he lived in Kyoto for ten years. Over the past ten years, she has written a lot about her life in Kyoto, as well as her cognition and understanding of being in a foreign land, giving us a lot of knowledge about the foreign land of Japan. The articles included in this new work not only pay attention to Japanese scenery, monuments and Japanese culture as always, but also reveal the traces of the author's reading and learning along the way and the extension and changes of academic interests. From natural history to book history, from Miyazaki City's research on Chinese history to the traces of the great bibliophile Fu Zengxiang's old collection, reading each topic one by one often makes people unable to bear to put the book down. At the same time, I admire her diligence in reading and in-depth thinking. This may be a different and richer Su Zhen's book than before. Her sensitive and fresh writing style in the book will definitely bring us more joy amid the nourishment of knowledge.

Each person has his or her own Kyoto. Nine years have passed, from green to dense shade, a long time condensed into a grain of amber, a fleeting moment in the long shot. Su Zhenshu's study tour in Kyoto lasted for nine years. Living in a mountain covered with pine, cypress, oak, fir, and camphor, she sincerely recorded the changes and eternity of the place where she has lived for a long time: tracking and visiting ancient bookstores, observing Japanese national character, and the ordinary scenery of ordinary local families. At the same time, she also spoke frankly about her own journey, describing the patience and courage to devote herself to life, and the exploration and gain amid hesitation.
