The first one is about a daughter that is having doubts if she should marry her fiancee of two years. He is so very quiet.... When her mother dies, she finds a kind of diary that her mother wrote to the man she loved. She wanted this diary to be cremated together with her, but according to the daughter is was too interesting to do that.
When reading it, she starts to understand her mother better, how she has felt all these years when she was experiencing an impossible love. All the things her mother never spoke of, she now reads in this diary and that changes how she looks at her mother.
It also gives her ideas on how to proceed with her own questions, but the outcome of that is not told.
A very strong portrait of an impossible love.
The second part is about a different kind of love. Two women who (have) love(d) the same man. One was loved by him when he was younger and she saved him on several occasions. She also gave birth to his child (and lost it when the boy was 15). Since that was highly uncommon in China, she had very hard years when the boy was small. The other woman married him and lived in wealth with him. They have a son together, who doesn't live at home anymore. She still tries her best to save him, make live easy for him. Now she has found him a job that will last him the few years that he still has to work intill his retirement. BUT in that job he'll have to work closely together with the woman he wanted to marry first... Despite she has grown over him, I can imagine that this triangle can be very uneasy for all of them. Too bad the book has only 157 pages. I would have read much more!
If you can find an edition in English, I strongly recommend! ( )
