Written By Southerner Huang Lihui

11K0

"Painful Pawn Shop" selects more than 70 sharp poems by the "King of Short Poems" Nan Ren, and pairs them with more than 30 bizarre paintings by the emerging illustrator Huang Li. The poetry of the Southerners is witty, humorous and compassionate, and shows great concern for eternal themes such as soul, life and death, and love. It deeply analyzes the souls of modern urbanites and has strong healing power. The illustrations specially drawn for this collection of poems are pure, beautiful and imaginative in color. They further visualize the poems and bring readers a rich and immersive aesthetic experience.
