Editor's review

Taking as its main thread Li Xiaofei, a girl from Guangxi who resolves to study tea science and carry forward Liubao tea culture, Flying intertwines coming-of-age growth with a local intangible cultural heritage craft. Its strength is that it does not turn ideals into slogans; instead, it lets the protagonist feel the weight of perseverance through the concrete processes of learning about, identifying, and making tea. Readers can follow her steps to learn about Liubao tea, a distinctive Guangxi tea, and feel the seriousness with which young people seek their place between tradition and the present. The narrative tone is bright and uplifting, and the regional scenery and tea-making details add texture to daily life, making it suitable for savoring the weight of growth at a relaxed reading pace. For readers interested in local cultural heritage, introductory tea culture, or youth coming-of-age themes, the book offers a gentle yet substantial entry point, and is also suitable as a parent-child read-aloud or a campus book club discussion text.

About the author

吴运兴 Author

Wu Yunxing is one of the authors included in the Chinese book database, but the publicly available information about him is very limited: his English name, nationality, and dates of birth and death are not recorded. Only one work by him is held in the database, the social novel Fangfei (Letting Go). Judging from the title and its classification, the work appears to be set against the background of real social life and to revolve around the characters' circumstances, choices, and spiritual pursuits, placing it in the tradition of social fiction close to contemporary life. Because biographical details, a chronology of his writings, and critical materials are lacking, it is difficult to assess the full range of his style and literary influence, or to confirm the publication background and reader response to Fangfei. Readers who wish to learn more about Wu Yunxing can only begin with this work itself, observing through the text its narrative perspective, the texture of its language, and the concerns it embodies. This entry is based on the facts in the database; other information awaits supplementation from public sources.
