"Hanging Gardens" Author: Zimu Publisher: Pacific Tong Publishing House, Paris

Unrecueil de nouvelles en chinois

After finishing a day's work, he returned to the empty room again. After bidding farewell to her old friend, she had to continue her journey alone. Someone said: The city of flowers is infinitely beautiful; he said: Where is the way home? Someone said: The Seine is as green as autumn; she said: Only I know the cold and warmth. People say that this place where my heart is at peace is my hometown, but I am also a traveler in this endless floating sky garden. Where can I find a corner of peace of mind?

Twenty-nine stories, twenty-nine kinds of people. After "Three Years of COVID-19, I Miss You in Paris", the French writer Zi Mu once again released a new work "Sky Garden". The writing is elegant and simple, but it is not lacking in life philosophy and emotional power. The author uses a delicate eye to outline the ups and downs of life, work and friendship in a foreign land, and share the search that belongs to our time.
