Features: The writings collected in this book mostly narrate my interactions with some friends in the literary and art circles. These friends include my respected predecessors in the literary world, my peers, and also younger friends. The depth and length of my interactions with them vary, but I couldn't help but record them in writing because such exchanges have taken root, sprouted, and grown like seeds in my heart. These writings are the flowers that these seeds have bloomed into. Some of the characters I depict in my writing have passed away, and this book is also a tribute and remembrance of them. After completing this book, the immortal line of Su Dongpo kept echoing in my mind: "May we live long and share the bright moon together, though apart."
