Features: In the first half of the 20th century, the academic and literary world was filled with great figures, and those who had a literary connection with Nanjing numbered in the hundreds. To include works from every important author is certainly beyond the scope of this small volume of 150,000 words. Due to differences in time and space, as well as subjective perspectives and objective influences, each person's view of Nanjing is unique, and no one can claim that their observations, thoughts, and descriptions are necessarily more accurate or correct than others. However, as long as one speaks with their own voice and shares their own words, they can at least offer readers something new, providing a "My Nanjing" that no one else has.
