Features: "Be Short, My Love" is a French literary work selected in the annual selection of the "Best Foreign Novel of the 21st Century." "Be Short, My Love" is the guidance and reminder that the author's mother gave to her daughter about writing. The author chose this title to deeply express her grief for her mother. The entire book is written in the form of a self-narrative, recreating the process of the mother's aging and eventual death in a nursing home. It truly expresses the complex and subtle emotions the author shared with her mother during their time together, but what runs through it all is the persistent affection of family, the touching mother-daughter love. The language of the novel is simple, straightforward, and unadorned, yet it possesses strong artistic impact.
