In 2018, Eslite Bookstore opened in Shenzhen. I have two biggest hobbies in that city. One is walking in Shenzhen Bay Park, and the other is reading and writing in this bookstore. I watched Li Jian’s Shenzhen concert on the evening of January 19. After the meeting, I left Shenzhen the next day. Before leaving, I bought the book "84 Charing Cross Street" at Eslite Life.
In 2019, in the same season, I came to the city of Shenzhen again. After arriving at my destination, the first place I went to was Eslite Bookstore. I found a book "Pride and Prejudice" that I used to read in this bookstore. ", like before, I stayed for an afternoon, watched Li Jian Shenzhen Encore concert in the evening, and returned to Changsha after watching Hai the next day.
I like bookstores, and all my quiet, rustic time is spent in libraries and bookstores. Whether it’s the nearby library where I used to live, or the Eslite Bookstore in Shenzhen, I always have a lot of beautiful emotions in it. With such a library, it gives me more happiness than the whole world. On the way home after reading the book, the music is always more beautiful!
"84 Charing Cross Street" records a poor writer who has lived in the city of New York for nearly half her life. She is a little lacking in talent but loves to read. She has purchased nearly 50 kinds of books on Charing Cross Street in total, which is not a large number. But it has maintained correspondence with bookstore personnel in foreign countries for twenty years. In the past 20 years, she has moved several times, and the days have passed, and the letters have become a constant narration in their peaceful and flowing life. They have never met, not even the last.
This book "84 Charing Cross Street" is a book of mourning the passing away, commemorating the adventure of the human heart in the twenty years of book time. Later, this bookstore, this book street can no longer be the same, only Because she wrote that "the kind person who sold me these good books passed away a few months ago, and the owner of the bookstore, Mr. Max, is no longer in this world",
In the end, with the 20 years of nostalgia in her heart, she ran to another city that once fascinated her, but unfortunately the people have passed away
Pushing the door and entering, the bookstore in front of her is not what it used to be. The bookshelf on No. 84 is empty and crooked. There are some waste papers scattered on the ground and it is full of dust. In the end, she came to this bookstore, but there was no one in the empty room. people respond...
She came from a poor family and did not go to college. Her love for books came from hard self-study in the New York City Library. She made a living by writing, but her life was still quite poor. People are interested. She has never been married in her life, and her best confidant is him whom she has never met in her life. She has been renting a house in New York. When she is old, she is finally willing to rent two good houses for herself and add some good furniture. The bedroom is simple and elegant, the furniture is mahogany color, the desk is full of books, the bookshelves in several vertical rows are full of books, a few lamps, a set of sofa, a bed, during the day in this room Writing in the room and sleeping at night is both a study and my own study.
In this way, she lived a life alone, a very simple and romantic life. The house is full of favorite things, no one bothers, writing all my life, dealing with books all my life, free and independent.
Yes, whether the person loves books or not, reads literature or not, many things in life are far more important than books.
No matter whether you have met someone who admires each other or not, whether you have ever had love or not, in real life, it is also very important to find a suitable person to marry and have children...
But there will always be someone in this world who is more important to ideals, love, equality, and self than anything else. I believe she is such a person!
And she and him, although not fate, but have feelings. This kind of feeling is pure understanding of each other and cannot be called love. This kind of feeling is just like she loves literature, books, and herself!
I also hope to have a room like hers, a desk, a bookcase full of books I love, a few lamps, an old but not tacky sofa, a plain bed, this room is mine Another world, in front of the desk full of sunshine during the day and under the dim light at night, I can write a lot of good articles and come up with a few good novels, just like this, simple and unpretentious, spend my time. Day and night, if I can still write a letter to the only confidant in this world from this desk, it would be a great happiness.
