Features: A contemporary writer is deeply fond of a writer from centuries ago and a poet from over a thousand years ago—Wang Meng, leveraging his literary sensibility and insights, attempts to transcend the barrier of millennia to experience, analyze, and connect with Cao Xueqin and Li Shangyin, who are immersed in the highest realm of Chinese literature. This is an exploration of the unique thinking, emotions, pursuits, and artistic conceptions of literary creators; a subtle understanding, a profound revelation, ancient and modern hearts, measured within.
