A 1,000-word synopsis of Ai Qing's Selected Poems
The cover of the book "Ai Qing's Selected Poems" has a picture: arid land, no green at first glance, withered and yellow trees , branches growing messily, I know that people at that time lived a very hard and terrible life.
When I opened the book, a smell of books came to my nostrils, leading me into the world of books.
What impressed me most about this book was "I Love This Land". This poem was written in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War. People at that time were living in a world of dire straits, screaming feebly in despair, wanting to do something for the country, but unable to do anything. And so does the author.
