Features: Touching China's Famous Essays: Long Street, Short Kiss: Chinese literature inspires a substantial harvest! Poetry injects romantic sentiments, achieving a transcendent state in the face of real-world hardships; novels grant power, allowing dreams and destinies to be freelyed. In contrast, essays are like an unadorned village girl—without rouge, fancy clothes, or yoga to sculpt her body—revealing her true, unembellished self. Based on this, we almost whimsically express our clear-cut stance and bold sentiments in our hearts. In our own way, the emotions of [Long Street, Short Kiss] surge forth. Life is a state, while living is a process. Amidst the richness woven from complexity and vibrancy, we share an experience of life, evoke an inseparable connection, and unleash an indescribable sense of emotion—this is our original intention. This book includes essays such as Loose Marriage, Various Love Letters, Why Should Love Be Modest, Within a Yard, Crying for Sanmao, Midlife is the Most Sentimental, and The Woman Watching the Bicycle.
