Features: 3000 Writer's Camp, 2005's Ultimate Collection of Youth Literature Short Stories. Yellow is the color of the Chinese emperor because he resides at the center of the universe, much like the sun hanging at the center of the sky. The negative connotations of yellow are reflected in the tradition of Peking Opera, where actors with yellow faces represent cruelty, hypocrisy, and shamelessness, while red faces symbolize loyalty, integrity, and uprightness. The brilliant yellow, with its ability to display authority, is also the color of masculinity, light, and life—it never fades. Yellow is vivid, intense, piercingly bright, or dazzling like molten metal. Yellow is the color of heat, expansion, passion, one that is hard to extinguish and unrestrained, difficult to control.
This series is written by young authors born in the 1980s, aged between 15 and 24, who have gained significant influence among Chinese youth in recent years. The content primarily focuses on campus stories, reflections on the inner world, and records of personal growth. Young hearts are easily carried away, and they grow wings of imagination to soar through all times and spaces. Everything seems ethereal, yet they walk the path of the present, writing about their dreams and realities.
The seven colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white—will serve as backdrops for youth emotions in this series, with each volume featuring a dedicated color, pioneering a new design trend in youth literature books. Accompanied by stylish PVC covers, the series shines brilliantly. At the Beijing Spring Book Fair, it sold in massive quantities, ranking fourth on the committee's order list.
This is a series about youth, comprising seven books: Wings of a Transparent Angel, The Era of Joy and Sorrow, Love in the Age of Blossoms, Youth Drifting in a Bottle, The Party of Time, Falling in Love with Eden, and Left Side of Boys, Right Side of Girls. It is the 3000 Writer's Camp and the essence of 2005's youth literature short stories. In these books, you will not only read works by familiar authors but also discover new talents and outstanding pieces.
From the cover design to the illustrations and text, every aspect of this series is perfectly harmonized. For us, children born in peaceful metropolises, what does youth truly mean? When rebellious hormones begin to surge through our veins, hesitation and silence surface on our faces. The weather in our memories seems to always be sunny and rainy, with happiness and sorrow alternating so vividly. In the golden years, we listen to our favorite music, and our worries and loneliness drift away with the notes. Countless days of youth, we pour out our dreams with bold strokes.
As time passes, youth fades on the walls of years, and those once-beautiful moments turn into black-and-white memories. At this moment, we joyfully pick up our pens to capture those wonderful scenes. As someone once said, "Youth is a masterpiece in the symphony of life, and it should be linked with beautiful things." When I read these words on a quiet night, when I touch the black text with my heart, I deeply feel that reading a book about youth is one of life's most beautiful experiences.
