"Three Books on the Earthquake" is a true record of the Wenchuan earthquake survivor and writer Li Ximin. It includes the personal account "Survivor" written two months after the May 12 Wenchuan earthquake, the documentary "Redemption" and the non-fiction work "Why We Call for Help" written ten years after the earthquake. The collection is a comprehensive record of the experience during the earthquake, the psychological trauma and healing after the earthquake. From a first-person perspective, "Survivor" truly records the entire process of Li Ximin being buried for 76 hours in the "5.12 Wenchuan Earthquake": from arriving at the scene of the incident to being buried deep in the rubble, experiencing panic, anger, and grievance, followed by persistence, waiting in peace, and the instinctive reaction of struggling for survival until he was rescued. The full text delicately reproduces the thrilling human disaster scenes, and also shows the beauty and kindness in human nature with plain and simple words. After "Survivor" was published in "Harvest" magazine, it caused a huge response and won the "Chinese Literary Media Award·Essayist of the Year Award" that year. The full-length documentary novel "Redemption" tells the story of He Guodian, who lost his son and mother in the earthquake and suffered from inextricable pain for a long time. After he came to Shanghai with his wife Du Moli, with the care and help of the kind people around him, he gradually walked out of his psychological shadow and walked step by step towards the road of self-salvation. With delicate writing and compassionate feelings, the author truly reproduces the harm caused by the disaster to ordinary people, deeply analyzes the psychological trauma of people after the disaster, and writes touchingly about the light of humanity in ordinary people in real life. "Why We Call for Help" is the author's work dedicated to the tenth anniversary of the Wenchuan Earthquake. It tells the story of writer Li Ximin, magazine photographer Su Qing, and farmer Yang Songshu's family struggling to survive and overcoming physical and psychological pain after the earthquake. "There is always something that should be illuminated." "Three Books on Earthquakes" truly presents the disaster scene and traumatic reality from a first-person perspective, and always points to the light during the physical and psychological self-rescue process of each person involved. Although difficult, it firmly reiterates the inherent softness and toughness, fragility and unyieldingness of life, and demonstrates the sacred dignity of life.

In 1929, Robert Graves went to settle abroad, "deciding never to consider Britain my homeland again." "Farewell to Everything" starts from his childhood and school life, focusing on his experience in the First World War: from the life in the trenches, the death of close friends and even being seriously injured and mistakenly regarded as a "killed man", to the negligence of British government departments and the absurdity of the British hierarchy during the war. He used a relatively brisk, restrained, and slightly ironic writing style to highlight the disorder and disillusionment caused by the war.

"Just prostitutes." The media has always been keen to tell people that the people killed by "Jack the Ripper" were all prostitutes. In this serial murder case, the killer became the focus of the story, and even became the target of people's pursuit for a time. The victimized women are not only ignored by the media and the public, but also misrepresented. By collecting a large number of historical files, court materials, witness testimonies, and combining it with the background of the time, Halle Rubenhold restored the full and tragic lives of the five victimized women for readers. Those killed by "Jack the Ripper" were by no means all prostitutes, "they were daughters, wives, mothers, sisters and lovers", and more importantly, "they were human beings". They were killed not because they were immoral or immoral, but because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Their greatest misfortune may be that they were born as girls.

The author puts ancient literary giants and classic masterpieces into today's publishing and reading context for comparison and reflection, resulting in interesting chemical reactions. The articles are short in length, and each article is accompanied by a portrait illustration of the author, which is very personal.

"Write for a Hundred Years and Stop: Tornatore Conversations with Morricone" is not only a high-level cross-border dialogue between a director and a composer, but also a time-consuming and long-lasting spiritual dialogue between two business partners who have similar aesthetic pursuits in art and trust each other. These two leaders in the art world explored and discussed aspects such as soundtrack creation, film shooting and director collaboration, memories of their mentors, understanding and expression of artistic works, the process of art learning, childhood experience and family, self-analysis of personality and daily life. They showed us how each great work was born, the artistic life behind the work and the confusion and tests experienced by the master. In a career spanning more than 70 years, Morricone wrote scores for more than 500 films and television shows. Morricone is a diligent genius, but he has long lived with low self-esteem and contradiction: continue to score movies or return to his role as a pure music composer. Throughout his life, he boldly innovated, broke boundaries, used music to express human nature, and gave the film scoring industry unprecedented professional dignity. This lengthy interview sheds considerable light on the term "composer."

Poems are written by people, and they are also written for people. A person's life, viewed vertically, is the four seasons, and viewed horizontally, it is the five emotions. The four seasons are spring, summer, autumn and winter, which correspond to life, which are teenagers, youth, middle age and old age; the five emotions are joy, anger, sorrow and resentment, which correspond to the human heart, which are the ups and downs of moods that cycle back and forth.

Based on this theme, 32 poems and essays were carefully compiled and revised. These poems revolve around the four seasons and festivals. In fact, they revolve around the cycle of time in the Tang Dynasty and the cycle of life of the Tang people. I hope to see them in this reincarnation - Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, and even more hope to see us - you, me and him (her) in this reincarnation. We and them, ancient times and today, tradition and future, meet in this wonderful poem of the four seasons. Let us, together with Teacher Mengman, appreciate in detail the wind, flowers, snow and moon that have traveled through thousands of years, and the immortal embroidered brocade heart that has lasted for thousands of years.

I hope readers will read it carefully and not let go of every line or word."
