Love Actually
In the face of love, we oscillate between feelings of inferiority and arrogance, believing ourselves to be love's masters one moment and its prisoners the next. Wang Yixing, a talented new-generation writer, explores this enigma in his latest work "Love Actually", comprising over thirty essays on romantic relationships. Through his poignant observations, he reveals that men are not the deeply affectionate princes but rather individuals masquerading as relationship experts while being preoccupied with trivial pursuits. Similarly, he challenges women's ideals of being Snow White, portraying them as individuals struggling to find a prince or a fairy godmother, and even fantasizing about becoming Cinderella's stepmother or stepsister. This thought-provoking exploration sheds light on the complexities of romantic love.
