.
Our entire lives, we are taught to measure our wealth in currency. But when we
reach the end, the number one regret of the dying isn’t about money. It’s about
experiences they wished they’d had—but didn’t.
Our experiences are the real wealth of our lives. But if that’s the case, why don’t
we have a real plan for how we seek them out and invest in them? Instead, we
postpone our personal goals to “someday” and put them off until it’s too late.
Bridget Hilton and Joe Huff started life with zero connections, money, fame, or
education. But by leaning into the joy of remarkable experiences, they discovered
their power to transform lives. Bridget and Joe have spent years interviewing social
science experts, conducting one of the largest surveys on life experiences ever
done, and turning themselves into experiential guinea pigs. Together they have
trained to be samurai, danced with the northern lights, tracked silverback gorillas
in a hailstorm, stood face-to-face with hungry lions on safari, sped across glaciers
on dogsleds, absorbed life lessons from Maasai tribesmen, built schools for kids in
need, studied with monks, helped give 50,000 people hearing, swum with sharks,
and explored the experiential riches life has to offer.
Experiential Billionaire unlocks the secrets to living a truly fulfilling and regret-free
life in a guidebook backed by compelling research, told through gripping, real
stories, and filled with actionable takeaways.

Through a meta-analysis of what moves markets and what drives human behavior,
New York Times bestselling author and founder of Verdad Advisers, Dan

fail―to create an asset allocation that can withstand the tests of time.

NVIDIA, the dominant force in the semiconductor industry, has achieved a market
capitalization of $3 trillion. How will this technological giant affect our future? This
book explains the global impact of NVIDIA's expanding technology.
Why did NVIDIA suddenly become the world's top company?
NVIDIAs strength lies in being a platform provider that delivers not only software

perspective.

government and private sector entities worldwide. What are they aiming for, and

This is not a book about how to succeed—it’s a book about how to think

phone boom to the secrets behind Brain Platinum and Luckin Coffee. Traversing a
century of history and countless case studies, you will see one fundamental truth
emerge: real demand is the source of all business success.

Self-Development
Sun Tzu’s Art of War has been read mostly as a book of war strategies that teaches
us how to beat our opponents on the battlefield. The Modern Art of War presents
a new interpretation: it isn't about conquering your enemies, devising strategies to
overtake armies, or getting ahead against your competitors. Instead, the real art
of war is the fight to control your mind and the thoughts that rule it.
Each chapter begins with the original text from the Art of War followed by an
overview, applied practice, thought-provoking prompts, and a chance for your
own reflection. Includes:
The complete text of the original Art of War.
Explanation of the symbolism, e.g. the "battlefield" stands for the terrain of the
mind, "war" for conflict between the lower and higher self, and the "enemy" as our
conscious thoughts, emotions and perceptions.
Chapter-by-chapter guidance to the deeper meaning of the Art of War, from
how to understand one's own nature to strategies for drawing on our own
wholehearted will and perceiving the inherent instability in all things.
Over 150 reflection questions that prompt the reader to understand the text
and guide them in their self-development journey.
Hunter Liguore is an award-winning writer, professor, and historian, with a lifelong
study in philosophy, specializing in the work of Sun Tzu. She's studied with Nobel
Peace Prize Laureate, John Hume (North Ireland), and has undertaken critical
research in peace and social justice studies.

Be a Subtle Person: Let Everything
Happen Naturally
做一个淡人:让一切自然发生
By Wen Changchang
The rapid development and changes of modern society have brought us many
conveniences while also increasing a great deal of internal friction.
"Subtlety" is a "soothing agent" in the fast-paced era, a "protective color" for self-
defense, and a "sense of boundaries" in an atomized society.
A subtle person is not someone without desires or emotions, but rather someone
who clearly understands their true longings—knowing what to do and what not to
do. It is like a calmness after madness or a sense of fatigue after enthusiasm. Their
mental state is subtle, their emotions are subtle, and they approach major life
events with subtlety. They treat everyone and everything with a light touch—subtle
emotions, subtle hobbies, subtle work—letting fate take its course.
Be intense in spirit: Focus on self-improvement, stay loyal to your passions, be
determined, positive, and unconstrained.
Be subtle in mindset: Take results lightly, view people and situations calmly,
practice restraint, maintain clarity, avoid entanglement, and reduce internal
friction.

relationships, covering topics such as family of origin, love and childbirth, power
dynamics, dating culture, and freedom of dress. Almost every video has sparked
significant attention and discussion.
This book stems from that series of short videos, focusing on the current hot topics
of gender rights. Through three main themes—family of origin, self-growth, and
relationships between the sexes—the book discusses how women can break free
from environmental and ideological constraints, correctly approach love and
marriage, and become independent both intellectually and financially.
Wang Huiling, born in February 1982 in Anhui, did not attend high school or
university. She is a self-taught Japanese speaker, fluent in English, and a self-taught
illustrator, with her works collected by various individuals and institutions.
She gained recognition for sharing her experiences as a grassroots woman and
her observations on the marital status of women at the lower social strata on social
media platforms. Her story has been deeply covered by media outlets such as
Sanlian Lifeweek and New Weekly. Related videos have repeatedly trended
online, garnering over a billion views. Her social media matrix "Lingling Peter and
Four Cats" has significant influence in the realm of women's topics. In 2021, she
published Grassroots Women which sold over 300,000 copies within a year.

基层女性生存指北
By Wang Huiling

practical and feasible strategies to help women discover their inner strength and
achieve dual independence both materially and spiritually.
The book is filled with the author’s reflections and self-awareness as a grassroots
woman, as well as her deep thoughts and concerns about the struggles faced by

When Jin Yong Meets Freud
当金庸遇见弗洛伊德
By Ju Zheng
2024 marks the 100th anniversary of Jin Yong's birth, and When Jin Yong Meets
Freud is a tribute to this literary legend. The book offers a fresh perspective by
analyzing over 40 classic characters from Jin Yong’s wuxia novels through the lens
of psychology and psychoanalysis, including iconic figures such as Guo Jing,
Huang Rong, Yang Guo, Xiaolongnü, Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao
Feng, and Duan Yu.
Freud, one of the most influential thinkers and psychologists of the 20th century,
founded the psychoanalytic school and introduced groundbreaking concepts
such as the Id, Ego, and Superego, the Unconscious, the Oedipus Complex, and
Psychological Defense Mechanisms. His contributions have greatly advanced the
development of psychology and the exploration of the human mind.
This book combines two monumental IPs—Jin Yong’s wuxia world and Freud’s
psychoanalytic theories—allowing readers to revisit beloved classics while gaining
valuable insights into psychology. Through character analysis, it delves into the
complex psychological underpinnings of Jin Yong’s martial arts heroes and
heroines, uncovering the inner workings of their minds and the subconscious
motivations behind their actions.
Ju Zheng is a seasoned psychological counselor, writer, and researcher of Jin
Yong’s wuxia novels. A graduate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences with a
specialization in psychotherapy, he was an 8th cohort member of the Sino-German
program and has 12 years of counseling experience, specializing in emotional,
family, parenting, and personal growth counseling. As the founder of the WeChat
public account "Xin Shi Ju Zheng" (Heart Lion Ju Zheng), he is recognized as the first
expert in psychological analysis of Jin Yong’s wuxia characters.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“A tightly written, tautly paced study of terror.”—The Washington Post
The shark-versus-man classic that inspired the blockbuster Steven Spielberg
movie—now in a fiftieth anniversary edition with an exclusive foreword from the
author’s wife, renowned ocean conservation advocate Wendy Benchley
A great white shark terrorizes the beautiful summer getaway of Amity Island, and a
motley group of men take to the water to do battle with the beast. A heart-
pounding novel of suspense and a brilliant meditation on the nature of
humanity, Jaws is one of the most iconic thrillers ever written.
In addition to Wendy Benchley’s foreword, this edition features bonus content
from Peter Benchley’s archives, including the manuscript’s original typed title
page, a brainstorming list of possible titles, a letter from Benchley to film producer
David Brown with candid feedback on the movie adaptation, and excerpts from
Benchley’s book Shark Trouble, highlighting his firsthand account of
writing Jaws, selling it to Universal Studios, and working with Steven Spielberg.
After writing Jaws in the early 1970s, Peter Benchley was actively engaged with
scientists and filmmakers, and over the ensuing decades, joined many expeditions
around the world as they expanded their knowledge of sharks and shark behavior.
He encouraged each new generation of Jaws fans to enjoy his riveting tale and
to channel their excitement into support and protection of these magnificent
prehistoric apex predators.

Jaws
By Peter Benchley
23
Peter Benchley’s fascination with the sea and its magnificent inhabitants inspired
such classic novels as Jaws and The Deep, making him the preeminent author of
ocean adventure and suspense. The Girl of the Sea of Cortez was his most
heartfelt, cherished story of the relationship between man and the sea, both those
that live in it and those who love it.
On an island in the Gulf of California, an intrepid young woman named Paloma
carries a special legacy from her father—a deep understanding of the sea and a
sixth sense about the need to protect it.
Every day, Paloma paddles her tiny boat into the ocean and anchors over a
seamount—a submerged volcanic peak sixty feet underwater that is clustered
with spectacular sea animals and a wondrous web of marine life.
It is there that an astonishing event takes place, when on one of her dives Paloma
is shadowed by a manta ray—an animal so large it blocks the sun. She develops
an extraordinary relationship with this luminous, gentle creature, but instinctively
knows its existence is a secret she must fiercely protect.
Benchley’s novel paints a poignant picture of humanity’s precarious relationship
with the ocean, which unfolds alongside a heartrending story of familial bonds,
often revealing that the ignorance of man is far more dangerous than the sea.
Peter Benchley began his career as a novelist in 1974 with the publication
of Jaws, which was made into a hugely successful film. His other books include The
Deep, The Island, The Girl of the Sea of Cortez, “Q” Clearance, Rummies, Beast,
White Shark, and Shark Trouble. He was also a speechwriter for President Lyndon
Johnson and a journalist for such magazines as Newsweek and National
Geographic. Benchley died in 2006.

“An excellent general introduction to Marco Polo......Kinoshita provides much-
needed elegant and imaginative discussions of historical contexts, in terms of
people, places, and activities in different parts of the world in Marco Polo’s time,
as a way of bringing Polo and his work to life.” -- Margaret Kim, professor, National
Tsing Hua University
A lavishly illustrated tour of the famed adventurer’s globetrotting travels, written by
a celebrated translator of Polo’s writings.
At the age of seventeen, Marco Polo left his Venetian home on a continent-
spanning adventure that lasted for nearly a quarter century. Imprisoned in Genoa
five years later, he collaborated with Arthurian romance writer Rustichello of Pisa
on a work they called The Description of the World. That book recounted all the
greatest marvels and great diversities of Greater Armenia, Persia, the Tartars, India,
and many other provinces,” a story that made Polo famous for all time.
In Marco Polo and His World, Sharon Kinoshita brings these marvels to life,
describing the myriad commodities, plants, people, and animals that Marco
encountered and recorded. Copiously illustrated, this book offers a vibrant
introduction to Marco Polo’s astounding adventures.
Sharon Kinoshita is professor of literature at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
Her many publications include an annotated translation of Marco Polo’s
Description of the World.

Marco Polo and His World
By Sharon Kinoshita
25
Madrid, late 1960s. After a long flight from Taipei, a young woman lands at Barajas
Airport. She is leaving her home for the first time, unaware that Spain will change
her life forever. In this country, she will find love and the inspiration to write stories
that will make her the most famous writer in Asia.
In Madrid, Sanmao will meet José María Quero, a diver with whom she will share a
romantic and tragic love story. With him, she will travel to El Aaiún, the former
capital of Spanish Sahara, an exotic place where she will write about her
everyday experiences with great humour. Stories of the Sahara and later Diarios
de Canarias became bestsellers in Taiwan and China, places where citizens were
then forbidden to travel. Sanmao became an icon of the free-spirited,
independent female traveller, shaping an image of Spain and its culture for an
entire generation of readers who now visit the country in search of the writer’s
traces.
A Journey into the Heart of Sanmao invites us to discover this profoundly free
woman and to explore the physical and emotional landscapes she travelled
through in her legendary life, where love, adventure, literature, and tragedy are
inseparable.
Ana Perez de la Fuente and Marta Apribas Veloso, both graduates in Information
Sciences, have formed a creative tandem as documentary film directors and
screenwriters since 2005. They are the authors of Sanmao, la novia del desierto,
which was released in cinemas across Spain and selected for various film festivals
such as Hot Docs (Toronto), the Málaga Film Festival 2020, the Guangzhou Film
Festival (China), CinemaEspaña Toulouse, among others.

Longlisted for the NATIONAL BOOK AWARD for Translated Literature
Named a BEST BOOK of 2024 by NPR, Esquire,Publishers Weekly, and ScreenRant
A hair-raising, poetic novel about a woman and the people who depend on her
as the world around them edges toward apocalypse.
In a city ravaged by a mysterious plague, a woman tries to understand why her
world is falling apart. An algae bloom has poisoned the previously pristine air that
blows in from the sea. Inland, a secretive corporation churns out the only food
anyone can afford—a revolting pink paste, made of an unknown substance. In
the short, desperate breaks between deadly windstorms, our narrator stubbornly
tends to her few remaining relationships: with her difficult but vulnerable mother;
with the ex-husband for whom she still harbors feelings; with the boy she nannies,
whose parents sent him away even as terrible threats loomed. Yet as conditions
outside deteriorate further, her commitment to remaining in place only grows—
even if staying means being left behind.
An evocative elegy for a safe, clean world, Pink Slime is buoyed by humor and its
narrator’s resiliency. This vivid and unforgettable novel explores the place where
love, responsibility, and self-preservation converge.
Fernanda Trías was born in Uruguay and is the award-winning author of three
novels, two of which have been published in English. She is also the author of the
short story collection No soñarás flores and the chapbook El regreso. A writer and
instructor of creative writing, she holds an MFA in creative writing from New York

Nine strangers escape from bombings in a hot air balloon. They must decide
which one of them has to jump into the ocean so that the rest of them can get to
a deserted island safely and start a new civilization. The passengers are the only
survivors of a worldwide war that has made the world we know disappear. What is
at stake, in reality, isn’t the future of the human species, but a temporary job as a
salesman in a large department store.
Although the first quarter of the 21st century seems to be irrecoverable, by
narrating it and telling the story again like fiction, Carlos might be able to decipher
and rediscover—as his older brother’s increasingly fantastical and delirious emails
remind him—the keys to a time period that seemed to be immune to fables and
adventure, where the only kind of fiction that was tolerated was the kind that
allowed people to fight for a shitty job.
Luis López Carrasco has written an exceptional novel about a generation seen
from a foreign space and time period; about characters who inhabit a strange
territory that drives them to confront what they were and what they are. In that
back and forth that makes up memory, its protagonists will attempt to reconstruct,
and, therefore, understand the invisible renunciations, the necessary alliances,
and the unforeseen shapes of utopia.
Luis López Carrasco is a filmmaker, writer and visual artist. In 2008, he founded the
collective Los Hijos with Javier Fernández Vázquez and Natalia Marín Sancho. The
collective’s first feature film, Los materiales, was chosen by the Spanish Cahiers du
cinema as one of the ten best ‘invisible’ films of 2010. In 2013, López Carrasco
released El futuro, the first feature he made independently. Aliens (2017)
premiered at the Locarno Film Festival.

Your Utopia
너의 유토피아
By 정보라 (Jeong Bora)
Jeong Bora-One of the Most Captivating Voices in Contemporary World Literature!
Your Utopia-The Second Story Collection by Jeong Bora.
As her follow-up to the acclaimed Meeting Her (published in 2021), this revised
edition features the title story Your Utopia, which embodies a persistent effort to
move toward a better world from the ruins of the present. With a new sequence,
updated design, and more finely polished prose, the book is ready to meet
readers once again.
Last year, the English edition Your Utopia, translated by Anton Hur, was published
in the United States, United Kingdom, India, and Australia. It was named one of
Time magazine’s “Books of the Year” in 2024 and, as of January 2025, has been
shortlisted for the Philip K. Dick Award. Alongside the Hugo and Nebula Awards,
the Philip K. Dick Award is regarded as one of the three major accolades in
science fiction literature. This marks the first time a Korean novel written in Korean
has been shortlisted for one of these prestigious awards.
A Story of Loss, Resistance, and Hope
Your Utopia unflinchingly exposes the petty and absurd contradictions of our world
while portraying individuals who endure their wretched lives, care for one another,
and learn the clumsy art of love. When love is suddenly lost like a bolt from the
blue, those left behind pause to mourn, etch memories into their hearts, and move
forward once more.
As the author reflects in the line, “If I do not mourn through action, how will I
remember this loss?” (p. 362), the book does not merely dwell on accepting and
grieving the situation. It also conveys an unwavering determination to demand
and fight for a better world.

Magical Girl Retires
마법소녀 은퇴합니다
By 박서련 (Park Seoryeon)
From award-winning author Park Seoryeon, recipient of the Hankyoreh Literature
Award and the Young Writers' Award, comes a charming and powerful magical
novel that promises to save your world.
With her unique and vibrant storytelling and glittering prose, Park Seoryeon has
captivated readers and earned critical acclaim. Now, she returns with her latest
work, Magical Girl Retires, the 13th volume in Changbi's Qseries of young and
middle-length novels. In this new book, Park once again presents strong and
beautiful female characters, but this time with a twist—taking the hand of a
"magical girl."
Imagining a World That Needs Magical Girls
The novel challenges the grim sense of doom that pervades the modern world—
news of people losing dignity, rising temperatures causing unpredictable weather,
wildfires destroying homes, and floods taking loved ones. In an era where thoughts
like "the world is falling apart" cross our minds daily, Park Seoryeon's story dares us
to imagine that anyone can become a magical girl.
Magical girls in this story are not just saviors for themselves but for the world—they
endlessly contemplate their relationship with the world and use their powers not
just for personal convenience but for the greater good. In a world that
desperately needs such figures, Park's novel is neither distant nor grandiose. It
invites readers to consider their own relationships with others and the world, and to
reflect on how their own small yet significant strengths might be used for the
collective "us."
Step into Park Seoryeon's magical world, where you might just discover that you,
too, are ready to become a magical girl.

Futuritis
未来症
By Lu Ban
The mid-24th century is a heart-breaking, bizarre place. Entire societies are reliant
on intercranial technology for everyday use. Men and women sell their souls to
machines on the black market, one small decision at a time. The wealthy extend
their lives with ominous elixirs. And an eco-base floats high above New York, a
home for the elite and rich. They might be well out of the range of the common
populace, but not from the reach of kidnappers. And amidst all this is the
psychologist, Florrie, trying to navigate this trying world. Soon she uncovers a dark
conspiracy, a web of connections between all these different technologies, one
that can shake the world to its very core. Now Florrie faces a choice: should she
just stand by or should she intervene and alter humanity's course forever? But
behind all these supposedly unrelated events was a complex web of connections,
in which a larger conspiracy was quietly brewing, one that would change
humanity forever.

Have you heard the rumor about the "Cursed Mark" that invites death?
The long-awaited official novelization of the horror adventure game Death Mark
from Experience is here.
"Welcome to the Kujo Mansion."
When the man comes to his senses, he finds himself standing in front of an
unfamiliar Western-style mansion. Drawn by an inexplicable force, he steps inside,
only to be greeted by a beautiful doll that speaks like a human.
The doll, who calls herself Mary, points out the ominous Mark (Shirushi) engraved
on the man's arm—an indication of an imminent death countdown. She warns
him that if nothing is done, death will come by dawn.
Together with other Marked Ones (Shirushibito)—people who bear the cursed
mark and seek help at Kujo Mansion—the protagonist must confront his fear of
death and face the monstrous apparitions (Kaiki) that inflicted the curse.
Can he survive? And why was the Mark engraved on him in the first place?
The novel version not only follows the original storyline but also unveils the
backgrounds of the characters, shedding light on aspects not depicted in the
game.

Li Xi, who once suffered from severe school bullying, has been living under a false
identity to leave her past behind. However, years later, tragedy strikes again—her

that the perpetrator is Ji Linlin, the daughter of Su Jingru, her former classmate and
one of her own bullies. The long-suppressed hatred in Li Xi's heart erupts, and she
decides to take revenge.
Using her beauty to get close to Ji Linlin’s father, Li Xi carefully plans her
vengeance. During a trip to an amusement park, she seizes the chance to push Ji
Linlin off a roller coaster. Yet, even after her revenge succeeds, Li Xi does not find
the peace she hoped for. Instead, she is consumed by deeper self-loathing and
despair.
Caught between hatred and guilt, Li Xi meets Zhang Jian, a cheerful and
optimistic police officer. Although she initially rejects his advances, she gradually
succumbs to her longing for love, and the two eventually become a couple.
A year later, one of the original bullies, You Meiling, hosts a girls' night at her home
but is found dead in her refrigerator with a bright red symbol painted on her face.

ties to her. Suspicion starts to grow in Zhang Jian’s mind, and he begins to doubt Li
Xi’s innocence.
After a thorough investigation, the murderers behind the string of killings all confess
and commit suicide. However, Zhang Jian feels that something still doesn’t add
up. Is Li Xi truly innocent, or is she the real mastermind behind it all?

Qilin
麒麟
By Zhou You
During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, in the famous city of Suzhou in
Jiangnan, a series of shocking and bizarre cases occurred one after another—on
Cangding Mountain outside Suzhou, a large amount of official silver was robbed,
and the culprits brutally dismembered the bodies of the soldiers, arranging them
into strange patterns; on the streets of Suzhou, a ferocious qilin suddenly
appeared—a legendary "auspicious beast" that, instead of bringing blessings,
unleashed a massacre, washing Suzhou with blood; during the renovation of the
Buddha Hall at Zhiyuan Temple, a large urn was accidentally unearthed from
underground, containing an old monk who had been meditating for four hundred
years, and after being dug out, he was found to still be breathing...
Tao Mingxin, living incognito in the countryside, secretly bears an earth-shattering
secret of resurrection. But the fall of his family and being marked for death were
only the beginning of his misfortune. Swept along by fate, he is unconsciously
drawn into the conspiracies, secrets, and struggles among various factions. Open
killings and crises intertwine with covert manipulations and intrigues. Each
revelation of truth continually challenges the boundaries of a gentleman's
understanding of evil. When the truth is finally uncovered, the half-dead Tao
Mingxin awakens to the realization that his entire life has merely been a script
written by others, and no matter how he struggled throughout his life, he was
never able to break free from the meticulously crafted cage.

Like Snow, Like Mountain
如雪如山
By Zhang Tianyi
In life, both "snow" and "mountain" are ordinary yet impossible to ignore. The snow-
like fragments of daily life and the mountain-like imprints of the past intertwine and
weave through the life memories of every woman. Like Snow, Like Mountain is a
metaphorical collection of stories about women's survival, told from a distinctly
female perspective.
With a keen, observant mind and a sharp, delicate writing style, Zhang Tianyi
unravels the growth journey of a woman named "Lili" through the fragmented lives
of seven female protagonists:
She might be Lili, the quiet college student sitting across from you on a Spring
Festival train.
She could be Lili, the new mother brushing past you in a hospital corridor,
struggling with postpartum depression.
Or perhaps she’s Lili, your elderly neighbor, a mother who lost her only child and
now lives alone.
Their burdens and struggles are portrayed with a penetrating and intense realism,
revealing the raw essence of survival.
Every woman carries a hidden piece of the same puzzle—secret joys and sorrows,
love and resentment—so different, yet intrinsically connected. In this book, we
may find answers to the questions of how to live, how to love, how to confront
restless nights, and how to face the future without losing courage.

Thirty Letters to My Daughter
给邱家瓦的三十封信
By Qiu Zhijie & Qiu Jiawa
Thirty ink paintings and thirty letters between father and daughter, traversing
profound topics from life to death.
Offering guidance to people feeling disoriented and despaired, lightening up the
dark moments of life, and leading you out of the haunting childhood
nightmares.
For Chinese people, the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge holds great significance. It is
the first double-decked road–rail truss bridge that China designed and built,
which is almost an engineering miracle. However, many people chose this bridge
as the last station of their life—they committed suicide here.
Qiu Zhijie, an artist and curator, participated in suicide prevention on this bridge
many years ago, having consoling and inspiring talks with the suicidal people. He
wished to share what he said then with his own daughter, as well as with many
other children and parents. As a result, he created thirty ink paintings of the
Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge and wrote thirty philosophical letters to his
daughter, traversing such profound topics as life, time, existence, the future,
success, and failure. He hoped her daughter would grow into a person that’s
rational, brave, composed, resilient, transcendent, gentle, and patient.
As his daughter reached the age when she could write back, these thirty letters
were published along with her daughter’s replies for the first time. Their discussions
are neither narrow in scope nor didactic in style, but are filled with love and
intellectual sparks. The book is rich in philosophical insights, guiding today's youth
to think deeply and face life positively and calmly.

Inside/Outside the Frame
格里格外
By Tian Ran
At a crossroads, the little adventurer hesitates—how to choose between two
completely different paths? Waves crash against the shore and slowly smooth out
all traces. Autumn wind brings a refreshing smell that is never sensed in the long
summer... Inside the comic frame lies a tapestry of vibrant stories, while outside it
exists an equally amazing world.
The author, Tian Ran, says, "The drawing paper is like a frame, where I select what
interest me the most among countless things and present them to readers. But
what if I draw another frame within this frame? It creates two spaces, one inside
the frame and the other outside it. Playing with this concept, I capture 126
moments of life whose stories take place within the frame but are also related to
the world outside it.
This book continues her exquisite art style, showcasing the unique beauty and
details of life within her "frame." As an observer of life, she blends her rich
imagination with personal experiences in her paintings, restaging memories on
paper and allowing imagination to break free. Awe-inspiring creativity, interesting
life stories, and beautiful colours make it an aesthetic treasure for readers.
Tian Ran began drawing at the age of three and identifies herself as a life
observer. She has keen eyes for the beauty of life and loves making illustrations,
comics, and art books. She holds a bachelor's degree from Tsinghua University and
