Features: The series is titled "Sea of the Heart's Night Voyage." The name reflects the vastness of its thoughts, like the boundless, ceaselessly surging, roaring ocean. The history of Chinese civilization since the invention of writing proves that accomplished scholars and writers have always sailed the sea of the heart, braving the rapids. The three generations of writers who have joined this series are no exception. Perhaps Mr. Mu Hui, known for his essays, and Mr. Shao Yanxiang, renowned for his sharp intellect, are more familiar to readers. Mr. Wu Liyang, whose essays continue to be published, is celebrated for his profound foundation in classical literature. The word "night voyage" also evokes imagination and longing.
