A love letter to all book lovers

A group of old actors performed this love letter to all book lovers? But unfortunately, she has never seen London where he is still there.

Before going to a destination, I try to read all the local texts, music, videos, etc. that I can find and are interested in. I study for a long time, and then I look forward to that second when I finally arrive at the scene. It is as vivid as history in my life. A little bit of life comes alive in your heart, and it feels as if your heart is resurrected with everything in your long-awaited destination, and the world is instantly filled with all kinds of colors. Just like when I go to every museum and see every favorite item, I always think about how I will use that tool to live a shining life every day if it spans a hundred years or a thousand years. It seems that everything in the world and me have a mysterious connection and a unique way of opening waiting for me to unlock them one by one?

I was very moved by how the hostess who was far away in the United States sent all kinds of meat and canned food to the bookstore generously when the British limited supply of various items after the war? It gave the people of No. 84 a bright yearning for the gloomy days. In this world, people rely on a little warmth and love to support them.

Here are the favorite snippets:

I love inscriptions on flyleaves and notes in margins, I like the comradely sense of turning pages someone else turned, and reading passages someone long gone has called my attention to. I like the sense of commonality that comes from flipping pages that others have flipped; I like reading an article that someone recommended to me a long time ago, as if we were reading a book together.) -- Helian Hanff, 84 Charing Street Cross Road

(I am a person who likes to write and draw in books, and I feel the same way.)

Charing Cross Street, this cross does not mean a cross, but a cross. In fact, it is a winding market street about one kilometer long. The southern end reaches the Thames River. There are the most beautiful Charing Cross Street stations, such as A beautiful stop, heading north past the National Gallery, through Soho and Chinatown, next to Covent Garden, to Oxford Street, and further down to Tottenham Road, soon to see the famous The British Museum. -- Helene Hanff, "84 Charing Cross Street"

(what a detailed description)

Dear Kathleen, I am organizing my bookshelf, and now I find time to squat in the pile of books to write to you, I wish you all the best of luck. I hope you and Brian are having a great time in London. Brian said to me on the phone, "If only you had more money so you could come with us." I almost burst into tears when I heard him say that. Probably because I've long wanted to step on that land...I used to watch a lot of British films just to see London's street scenes. I remember a friend who said many years ago: When people come to the UK, they can always see what they want to see. I said, I'm going after English literature, and he told me "it's there" maybe, even if it wasn't there, look around me...I'm pretty sure they're here. The kind person who sold me these wonderful books passed away a few months ago, and the owner of the bookstore, Mr. Mark, is no longer in this world. But the bookstore is still there, and if you happen to pass by 84 Charing Cross Road and give me a kiss, I owe it a lot... -- Helene Hanff, 84 Charing Cross Road

(I also like to go to tourist places to find the shadow of local literature)

Reading is basically a person's behavior, so most of the heavy bookworms are lonely and lonely. Or because of this, there is this book "A Man" in the "Internet and Books" series. The book quotes Tillich's sentence, which is very good: language coined the word "loneliness" to express a The pain felt by a person; the word "loneliness" is used to express the glory felt because of a person. -- Helene Hanff, "84 Charing Cross Street"

The time difference caused by the delay between correspondence is probably only comparable to the subtle difference in the germinative time of natural yeast. Once the communication becomes too efficient, it is no longer necessary to look up and look at each other, and some affection will quickly depreciate and go unnoticed. -- Helene Hanff, "84 Charing Cross Street"

The London I remember is an afternoon where you can feed the pigeons. In the park, you can lie down and eat ice cream with the local children in the UK?? The new mobile phone fell in the grass and was chased by three smiling women. It was returned to me, the Big Ben under maintenance and the watchman at the gate of Buckingham Palace.

I used to watch a lot of British movies just to see the street scenes in London. I remember a friend said many years ago that when people come to the UK, they can always see what they want to see. I said I was going to pursue English literature and he told me: 'There it is! 'If you happen to pass by 84 Charing Cross and give me a kiss, I owe it a lot. -- "84 Charing Cross Street"
