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 hangs 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 signify loyalty, integrity, and uprightness. The shiny yellow possesses the function of displaying authority. Yellow is masculine, the color of light and life, and it never fades. Yellow is vivid, intense, piercingly bright, or dazzling like molten metal. Yellow is scorching, expanding, passionate—the color that is hard to extinguish and unrestrained, difficult to control.
This series is a collection of books written by young authors born in the 1980s, aged between 15 and 24, who have gained significant influence among young Chinese readers in the past four or five years. The content primarily focuses on narrating campus stories, reflecting inner worlds, and recording personal growth experiences. Young hearts are easily soaring, and they grow wings of imagination to fly through all times and spaces. Everything seems ethereal, yet they walk the path of the present, writing their dreams and realities.
The seven colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white—will serve as the backdrop 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 organizer'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 Flower Season, Youth Drifting Bottle, The Party of Time, Fall in 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 excellent works. Whether in the cover design, illustrations, or text, the series is a perfect blend.
For us, children born in peaceful metropolises, what does youth truly mean? When rebellious hormones begin to surge in our veins and hesitation and silence appear on our faces, the weather in memory always seems sunny and rainy, with joy 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 splash our dreams onto the canvas of life. Over time, youth fades on the walls of years, and those once beautiful moments turn into black-and-white memories. At this moment, we happily pick up our pens to capture those beautiful scenes.
As someone once said, "Youth is a brilliant aria 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 those black fonts with my heart, I deeply feel that reading a book about youth is one of life's most beautiful experiences.
