This book is a collection of short stories published by the famous contemporary Japanese writer Ogawa Yoko in 1998. Although it is the author's early work, the author's characteristics - a world setting full of fantasy, a plot intertwined with reality and fiction, and a delicate and restrained psychological description - have matured in this work. The book consists of eleven short stories, with the themes of "death" and "mourning", and the stage background is set in a fictional town with a clock tower. The stories are independent of each other, but they are also implicitly connected and scattered with foreshadowing, vaguely forming a circular structure that echoes from beginning to end. Some characters appear interspersed in each chapter. For example, the passerby in the first chapter is the protagonist of the second chapter, and the second chapter has details related to the third chapter... Weird interweaving, evil collision, and the fate of desperate people are gathered in a poignant web woven by ominousness and darkness.

Good intentions can dissipate violence, good intentions can bring luck, good intentions can bring karma to another life, and good intentions can turn things around. Kindness can help people capture and build a unique sense of happiness. "I don't" is a kind of calmness, a kind of resignation, and a kind of introspection. Every story in the book can be called "I don't": the bookstore owner who sticks to Tibet for ten years and contributes to the basic education of Tibetans; the Northeast prodigal who is free and easy in both good and evil, spending his family wealth to help disaster areas, and traveling around the world with his seriously ill mother. ; The dull and taciturn street singer who never abandons his terminally ill girlfriend; the immortal veteran who cares about his comrades who died in battle 31 years ago and refuses to live in secret, risking his life and death for the safety of the ancient city... Every sentient being in the book is saying to fate: I don't! I risk my life and refuse to accept my fate. My fate is up to me and I can't help it. Disobedient, unwilling, unafraid, unruly, unyielding, unremitting, unyielding, neither broken nor established, neither humble nor arrogant... They are different because they are not. Even extraordinary. They in "I Don't" really exist in this world, and their stories are also their real lives. They learned to be calm in the face of impermanence, and experienced misfortune in their calmness, so the story became touching - mortals unlocked divinity. However, none of the touching stories happening today happened for the first time. The stories written by Da Bing may be the past events in your heart, and the people in the stories may be you. Therefore, maybe this book is a lonely journey of finding yourself for you, and it is also a wonderful process of discovering similar people: I hope you and I will always face the world with kindness, and even face ourselves with kindness. May your knowledge and actions be united, and may you have peace of mind. I hope this "I don't" can help you cross the river.
