Description

This book vividly portrays the characters, and its reflections on the meaning and value of life remind me of Maugham's "The Moon and Sixpence". Human nature is nothing more than a struggle between these two aspects, the spiritually full moon and the materially satisfied sixpence. Some people are slaves to material desires, some are believers in spiritual pursuits, some seek balance in the cracks, some seek material desires in the spiritual world, and some seek spiritual satisfaction in the material world.

How many people are described in one book. "In the sea of ​​noise and turmoil, all living beings are troubled by various conflicting interests, lost in the chaos of the world, and yearning for beauty. They appear to be determined on the outside, but are hesitant on the inside, so kind and yet so hard-hearted, so honest and yet so cunning, so mean and yet so generous." This is like a knife, which has two sides but only one blade. Everyone's humanity is the blade of a knife, two sides of the same coin, inseparable.
