Hello!!! I saw your post where you’re rereading Thousand Autumns, and was wondering, are you reading it in English? And if so, can I please have the link? I can’t find the entire novel translated anywhere 🥺
I was just about to delete Thousand Autumns from the pinned post bc I’m done reading it + am moving on to Peerless so instead, I’ll just put the links here so people can find it if they need it

–很多年以前,曾经有一跟人说他活不下去了。他问我活着到底是为了什么,有什么意义。你知道我当时怎么回答的吗? Many, many years ago, there was once someone who said he couldn’t continue living on any longer. He asked me just what he was living for, what meaning there was. Do you know how I replied him back then?
–怎么回答? How did you reply?
--我说,如果不知道要怎样活下去,就为了我而活下去吧。如果你不知道活下去的意义,那就把我当成支持你活下去的理由吧。 I said, if you don’t know how to live on, then live on for the sake of me. If you don’t know the meaning of living on, then take me as the reason for you to continue living on.
What if… my real face is ugly, would you still want to see it? …What if I’m discolored, disfigured, ugly, monstrous and horrible? I want to see it because we are friends now. And friends should be honest with each other. Don’t worry, as long as it is your real face, I will… What’s wrong? Why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong?
