fictional

recommendation: this book is a campus story made up of seven short stories and one long story about the youth of a truly ordinary girl. The person writing 

the reason why I must fall in love is an ordinary student. They are not good-looking, their families are not distinguished, and their achievements are not outstanding. This group of people is so ordinary that they can be ignored by all the works of youth, or even forgotten by us. It's really hard for us to remember them, but aren't these people ourselves? What we often miss is the youth of others and the youth that others have made up for us.

the stories written in Wang Dagan's books have no love and no idol drama plot. The film and television rights to the short story of the same name "the reason I must fall in Love" were sold before I asked her to publish a book. This story is very interesting, like "my friend lost weight", with the color of magical realism. Only in this way can youth be a little less cruel.

sometimes it's risky to write your own story. It means not only bringing the people around you into the story but also peeling yourself off. Those throbbing thoughts of youth, unspeakable thoughts, and even ideas that are "incorrect" in the eyes of others are all exposed in the words. "

nonfiction

recommendation: British map expert Jerry Broden reveals the mystery of maps in his book: how maps are made? How to develop cartographic methods? What does the map bring us?

"in Pei Cave, Socrates imagined himself rising into the air and overlooking the earth -" it is said that it looks like a ball wrapped in twelve pieces of leather in different colors from above. The colors we see here are just copies of them, as painted by painters.

the twelve-chapter map of this book comes from different periods of human history and presents different colors, including the light of belief from the Middle Ages and the journey of discovery in the era of arrogance and navigation. These twelve skins wrap science, politics, religion, culture, economy, and other topics in the history of our planet, forming what Piernola called the "field of memory."

fortunately, when we read the last Google global map from 2012, we will be pleasantly surprised to find that we are also in this field, at a time when this information explosion is far more than any previous century, the author tries to make the distant history collide with the present, making us in the "still point of the rotating world", looking for the place where we once lived in the world. The map has become what the author calls the "eye of history", and its drawing process has also become a conscious act of memory. At this moment, history has endowed the map with time and meaning. These lovely maps, like some of our great human figures, "do not belong to one era, but belong to all centuries". "
