梦里花落知多少

The house on Mango street

The book is highly rated on Douban.com, so I borrowed it from the library.
The surface of the book is of some kind of art, with three women doing something, let's say it is the author, her mum and her sister nenny.

Inside the book are all short stories about her daily life, the people she met and the things she does everyday and the things she has longed for. It is kind of poem like, some of the sentences and scenes are not connected. That is why when Kong read one chapter of the book, he said he will not waste one more minute on the book.

I can understand what is said in the book, actually when I start to read chapter one of the book at the bus stop, I can not help thinking of the small house in my hometown village, thinking about the time I had spend there with my parents and my three brothers and my sister. Tears just come into my eyes.

I think I will oneday write something about my days in Dong Yuting Village back in China. someday.
