Features: This book selects some of his landscape essays, short pieces on food and sexuality, and a small portion of music essays. It inevitably categorizes them into four types: beautiful scenery, delicious food, beautiful music, and beautiful people, naming it "Food and Color" to try to attract attention. "Food" refers to the short pieces on food culture, while "Color" means both scenery and the sexuality of men and women. The title "The Allure of Food and Color" is even added with a touch of cultural reflection. "Food and sex are natural instincts." In reality, life is often not lost in profound philosophical propositions but rather in the endless pursuit of basic desires. This book attempts to connect with the fundamental questions of life, giving rise to confusion from apparent clarity, and thus finding a way out of this confusion of the seemingly unconfused.
