Island Bookstore Farewell Night Letter from Yu Huapin’s Reading Fan

On the last day on Boundary Island, a unique reading feast became the most beautiful scenery on the island.Yu Hua, Su Tong, and Xi Chuan, three literary giants, each selected their favorite works in “Boundary Bookstore” and prepared to spend a quiet and comfortable reading time.

Yu Hua, the writer who is famous in the literary world for his works such as "To Live" and "Xu Sanguan Sells Blood", has once again praised Goethe's "Faust" after more than thirty years.He recalled how he regarded this book as a treasure when he was young, and every word was deeply imprinted in his heart.Rereading it now, he seems to have returned to that era full of dreams and passion, feeling the spiritual power of Faust's constant exploration and pursuit throughout his life.

Su Tong is widely praised for his unique literary style and profound insight into human nature.The books he chooses are also full of literary charm.In a corner of the Boundary Bookstore, he was immersed in a classic novel, enjoying the pleasure of reading.The stories in the book made him smile sometimes and meditate, completely immersing him in the world of literature.

Nishikawa, a writer famous for his poetry and literary criticism, chose a book about ancient Chinese philosophy - Feng Youlan's "A Brief History of Chinese Philosophy".He is quite obsessed with the development of ancient Chinese philosophy and hopes to have a deeper understanding of the essence of Chinese culture through this book.He carefully flipped through each page, sometimes thinking and sometimes recording, appearing very focused.

At the moment of farewell, the three writers took photos together at “Boundary Bookstore”.They stood in front of the bookshelf, with a dazzling array of books behind them, with smiles of satisfaction and joy on their faces.At this moment, they not only recorded their wonderful time on Boundary Island, but also recorded this rare scholarly journey.
