Summary

This is the best of times and the worst of times. Along the way, I have witnessed glory and wealth and endless suffering filling the world. Since ancient times there has been the warning that “when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold,” and also the cruel reality that “when the birds are all gone, the good bow is put away; when the cunning hare is dead, the hound is cooked.”

Su Shi once sighed: “I always regret that this body is not my own—when will I forget all this restless striving?” I often think that if I pour the last of the deep love and free spirit in my heart into poetry, it can not only let me find release amid the tumult but also send a trace of comfort to souls in darkness.

Editor's review

Shi San Bai uses poetry as an outlet to respond to the felt reality in which “the best of times and the worst of times” coexist. Beginning with ancient maxims such as “when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold” and “when the birds are all gone, the good bow is put away,” and borrowing Su Shi's sigh “I always regret that this body is not my own,” the author turns the witnessing of glory and suffering into the deep love and free spirit of the heart. The book's value lies in using the lyric tradition of classical poetry to hold the predicament of contemporary people: it offers no answers but a way of expressing that finds release amid tumult and sends comfort to souls in darkness. The writing leans toward introspection and sentiment, suited to slow reading in quiet moments, letting the lines and one's own circumstances reflect each other. If you expect rigorous argument or plot-driven narrative, adjust your expectations.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Readers who love classical poetry and lyric prose and seek spiritual comfort
  • People who want a moment of release through poetry amid real-life pressure
  • Readers interested in Su Shi's open-hearted spirit and classical imagery
  • Readers accustomed to slow reading who are willing to reflect and settle in the text

Not a good fit for

  • Readers expecting rigorous argument, systematic poetics, or scholarly annotation
  • Readers who prefer strong plots and fast-paced narrative
  • People seeking concrete life solutions or practical guides

Reading tips

  1. Read one or two pieces a day and pause afterward to copy out the lines that move you.
  2. Read alongside the original lines of Su Shi and other classical poets to appreciate the layers of the author's allusions and sentiments.
  3. Avoid reading straight through when you are low in spirits; start with short pieces to avoid dwelling on the narrative of suffering.
  4. After reading, write a few lines of reflection to bring the book's “deep love and free spirit” into your own concrete circumstances.

About the author

李泉昌 Author

Li Quanchang's biographical information is very limited in publicly available sources, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and educational background cannot currently be confirmed. The library holds one work by him, Poems Three Hundred, which is classified as modern poetry and serves as the main basis for understanding his writing. Judging from the title and the category, the work unfolds in poetic form and generally follows the language and expressive manner of modern poetry rather than the metrical conventions of classical verse. Although the title borrows the familiar name of the Book of Songs, its actual content and approach still belong to contemporary poetic creation. Because other works and biographical materials are lacking, it is difficult to make further judgments about the full scope of his writing, the specific features of his style, or his position in the poetry world. Readers who wish to know this author may begin with Poems Three Hundred, sensing his linguistic choices and poetic construction through reading, and gradually add to their understanding as further materials may emerge.
