Features: This is a novel depicting the emotional lives of urban women. The novel features a clever plot, a fashionable writing style, and a dreamlike, ethereal quality between reality and fantasy. It is considered an adult fairy tale or a witch story that unfolds around us. As the author puts it, "The women encountered are all witches." They lurk in every corner of the city, and when you unexpectedly meet one, it inevitably leads to a wonderful yet poignant story. The author calls herself a "witch creator," reminiscent of Pu Songling writing Liaozhai Zhihu. Some critics have also defined He Xiaozhu's new novel as "fantasy literature."
