【Celebrity Reviews】

★In the unreal time and space that we cannot see, there is a night bus with stops at different stages of life. If the deceased is the one who stays on the bus and drives to the destination, it is actually us who say goodbye to her and get off the bus. ——Hu Xiaojiang (cartoonist)

★ Zuo Ma's extraordinary creativity is to use the most naive language to express his truest emotions. I feel that this is too difficult. He did a good job. ——Liu Dongzi (cartoonist)

★This is a book dedicated to my grandma, and it also fulfills Zuoma's fantasy through my grandma's fantasy. ——Satan-kun (cartoonist)

★The black borders and shapes in the painting hide endless thoughts. To do something for the deceased relatives in the form of comics, the experience in between is probably hard for ordinary people to imagine. I admire Zuo Ma very much. ——Wang Shuo (cartoonist)

★The more Zuo Ma directly faces his own situation and doubts in his comics, and releases his emotions without concealment, the more I am moved. - Chimney (artist)

★ Zuo Ma left enough fragments between the track and the trackless. The old friends on the bus met and then separated. The old friends all looked like fragments. ——Li Qingyue (picture book artist)

★The story is full of poetry and personality. The dreamlike plot and highly rendered atmosphere make me think that he is a new generation of highly artistic cartoonists after Tsuge Yoshiharu. ——Matthew Forsey (picture book writer)

★An adventure of fantasy and memory, an interweaving of illusion and reality. Some people leave in the passing of memories, while others return in the recollection of family affection. This is a journey home for two generations. ——Tao Langge (comic critic)
