🐈 "Even in great pain, life still faithfully fulfills its obligation to grow."She leads a very regular life.
Get up at 8 o'clock;
Eat breakfast before 10 o'clock;
Write a letter before dinner that you won't send;
After dinner, I took the letter out for a walk;
At the end of your walk, tear up the letter and throw it in the trash.
Don't contact anyone,
And don't meet anyone.
She thought she would live like this forever.
Until he met the girl Sai Yi and the stray cat Turnip.
【Editor's Recommendation】
🐈Look for a glimmer of light in the cracks of life. Even in a broken life, there are moments worth protecting.
Kim Hye-jin, author of "About Daughter," deeply depicts the daily life of modern life where anger and hope are intertwined.
She is a psychologist who has suffered from online violence and has hurt others with harsh words;
She was an elementary school student who suffered from school bullying and fought back with violence in anger.
A stray cat rescue operation became an opportunity for them to reconcile with life. They acknowledged their pain and, with the utmost kindness, attempted to understand the existence of humans and animals. Together, they and the cats approached the exit of life.
🐈When persecution of individuals becomes a daily routine, can we still live authentically and freely? Under the shadow of judgment, we are neither accepted nor safe.
Even so, living is never a choice, but a responsibility that must be borne. We are humble and selfish, with neither victory nor failure, just passing time.
Since her debut, Korean writer Kim Hye-jin has won numerous awards: the Central Novel Literature Award, the Shin Dong-ye Literature Award and the Daesan Literature Award, etc.
She always maintains a proper distance from her characters, neither criticizing nor judging, but rather listening with a gentle, silent attitude. From the mother-daughter relationship where there is no winner or loser, to the "evil" of weak-willed violence among East Asian migrant workers, to ordinary people caught in the grip of violence, in a world of division and opposition, she calmly questions the impulsiveness of taking sides and salvages the kindness discarded by humanity.
🐈It's about the courage to persist in living a normal life, and also about understanding and connection beyond language.
Although sincerity and kindness cannot be forced, we can at least plant a little vitality for ourselves in the cracks.
The cat, who speaks a different language, and the girl, who speaks profound words, create a safe space for adults, guiding them to intuitively touch the essence of life. Letting go of suspicion is the beginning of understanding and the most sincere practice of love.
📕Amidst violence and sorrow, they draw together, attempting to illuminate the darkness behind them. Emerging designer Zheng Zaishui and renowned illustrator Yuzhou Feigou capture the essence of this work.
"She felt she could at least tell the girl these things if she wanted to, if she wanted to hear it. But until then, she would wait patiently and try her best to listen.
She relaxed her shoulders and straightened her back. The girl met her gaze.
110*185 paperback double cover, showing the power of trust between tranquility and fire.
The text is made of lightly coated paper, which is smooth to read and does not easily turn yellow.
