202K9.239

Recommended by Luo Xiang. The forty-year chronicle of a villainous girl has been called by netizens "the darkening of the despised Yoko" and "a more realistic version of "Everything Is Fine"". Suzuki Yoko died in the apartment where she lived alone. To be precise, Yoko Suzuki died a few months ago. Because when she was found, her body was not only eaten by the eleven cats in the house, but all the cats also starved to death. Suzuki Yoko is obviously the best example of "dying alone", but why did this woman end up in this situation? Where are her relatives, friends, and colleagues? What is the trajectory of her life? This book uses two relatively independent death incidents as clues to lead to three intertwined cases. It tells the story of the heroine Yoko's personal struggle in the era, and her step-by-step slide from mediocrity to the hopeless abyss. The story takes place in a Japanese city in 2014. The book is divided into three lines: the first line is the case of "middle-aged woman dying alone", starting from the discovery of the female body, describing the investigation process of policewoman Ayano, and gradually revealing the life of the heroine Yoko. The second line begins with the case of "Death of Non-Profit Organization Leader". Two seemingly unrelated cases gradually intersected, intertwining the truth. The third line narrates Yoko's life experience in the second person, starting from Yoko's childhood to the discovery of the female body, and delicately describes Yoko's growth and changes and the process of being swallowed up by society.

The flight of a bird is casual and spontaneous, like the curling of a stem or the lightening of a star. "Pilgrimage to Tinker Creek" records a year of life in the Dillard Mountains. Each page is a beautiful mystery, as if watching a whole year of secrets about creation: the birds in the sky, the plants on the ground, the stars in the universe, all written casually, but full of exquisite beauty everywhere. She writes about what she sees in her eyes, but often makes more profound and profound associations in her mind, starting from the big-eyed silkworm moth, writing about a cell in its wet heart, there will be a forest swaying inside; about the vitality of trees: a big elm tree can produce six million leaves in one season alone, all of which are very complicated, but also effortless. And she laughed at herself: "I can't even make one piece." She watched the cruelty of creation, the parasite eating the host out of the stomach, and the inheritance of life based on this life-and-death struggle. Or wasteful, those ephemeral bugs lay thousands of eggs, and countless of them die, and a species survives just by relying on the few that survive. In the author's writing, nature is both terrifying and full of infinite mercy. If you can have a pair of observant eyes, you have saved yourself a "good life". "Pilgrimage to Tinker Creek" can be regarded as a model of contemporary nature literature and has been widely selected as textbooks for American universities and middle schools. Critics believe that this book is better than Thoreau's "Walden", while others say it is comparable to Fabre's "Insects". For Dillard, it was a free and bold confrontation with the world's greatest themes of life and death with her young and unrestrained mind of twenty-six years old.

As an unsurpassed classic in the history of Chinese novels, it is difficult to be simply summarized. "A Dream of Red Mansions" can be said to be a coming-of-age novel, but also a book of enlightenment with philosophical meaning and "enlightenment through emotion". The book describes the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue, which once prospered, but eventually disappeared. Each character has his own destiny. This is a family history that changes from prosperity to decline, and a wonderful group portrait. It is interspersed with the marriage and love emotions of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai.

At the same time, events such as relationships, weddings and funerals, managing the family and governing the country, etc., Emerge one after another. From this point of view, it is another novel about worldly affairs.
