Features: Xu Lu's selected youth literature. Who is the brightest and most beautiful star in the galaxy? Who is the purest and most gentle among the lotus flowers? Who listens to my whispers from afar? Who sings for me in the shallow river of stars? Who stands against the wind when I am in pain? Who remains silent for me amidst the noise. Growing up is hard, and it's not easy to become an adult. This is true for everyone. This book is the author's recollection of his youth and a microcosm of the growth journey of a generation of young people. It also records the destinies and encounters of many peers, showcasing the enduring kindness and beauty in those lonely and absurd times, as well as the joy amidst hardship, and the dignity and belief in poverty. From it, one can perceive the spiritual temperament of the "1960s generation." The content of the book is sincere and moving, with simple yet elegant prose, reflecting the author's clear and refined essay style.
