Features: This book is one of the "Poets Talk About Poetry" series and is a popular reading material on the creative experience of Chinese poetry and literature. Han Zuorong has published sixteen works, including poetry collections, reportage collections, essay collections, and poetry theory collections. The articles compiled in the book are mostly writing experiences or learning reflections written by him in his spare time from poetry creation, or introductions to the works of other poets. There are very few "formal" academic articles, thus less of the "theoretical" aura often discussed today. As writing experiences, they can also be seen as the poet's own inner monologue and annotations on creative thoughts. Sometimes, one can glimpse the various creative struggles a poet faces when entering the creative process, as well as the differences in thought and methods among individuals in handling such topics. All of this can serve as literary materials and empirical evidence of the author's creative mindset for critics studying contemporary poetry; for aspiring young poets, it offers invaluable inspiration and references.
