it must be admitted that echo,whose chinese name is sanmao,was the most legendary taiwanese author in the contemporary literitary in china.it is her writings that makes herself stand out as an independ female as well as paves the way to a more clear life for a host of readers,including me myself.
more surprising than the common adventures are the stories she told in book,and more surprising yet is her whole legend life itself.setting out at a young age,echo was one of the very earliest chinese to study abroad and went through almost the entire world.her experiences,especially the ones in sahara desert are teeming with fabulous stories,which also lead us to think about life.
meeting people from all walks of life,she concentrated her attention on the normallest ones around her and made persistent efforts to do good,which can be seen through her behavior of teaching and helping these uneducated saharans.and what she went through told us that reality itself can be more eye-popping than any novels,too.
it is alsoher attitude towards life that fascinates the readers.hard as the times was,she could be as cool as cucumber.she and her husband nearly created their own special and unparalled house in sahara with hard working and the love for life. one thing must be admitted is that she set foot on the soils of many different places with romantic imaginations in heart,but she had the nerve and was willing to face all the hardship of reality as well and still insisted on the dreams from inner heart.some people suppose she’s hypocritical and want to play her down,but she never changd herself to look up to others’ likeness.she’s not for anyone to criticize,rather,she’s just a woman who told readers what was in her mind sincerely.her actions of “doing the things my own way” is like dante alighieri’s world-famous words---- “lead your own path,let others talk!”her ability to seize every opportunity to live life to the fullest,her constant persuit of knowledge and her courage of speaking what others are afriad to say or will not say all stand out shinely in all writers,making her the specialest one and “echo” in the hearts of many people.
when it comes to the literaturary value of her works,she had the ability nothing lower than many other famous writers.but what lead us to full in love with her writtings don’t only lie in the words themselves but more in the way she viewed life.
not only strive even in the most tough time but also make relentless efforts to enjoy the normallest yet not-so -simple life,that’s what echo taught me and i have never wavered in the belife that she’ll still be a beacon that lights up the way forward for more people.
