Selected Poems of Hai Zi

This book compiles 100 lyrical short poems by Hai Zi, divided into six sections based on emotion and meaning. It also innovatively introduces the concept of a "recitation edition." We hope to call upon every reader who loves Hai Zi's poetry to experience the emotions and stories behind these works through recitation, the most natural form of poetry.

The book employs a unique exposed-spine, thread-sewn binding, ensuring it is lightweight and lies flat, making it suitable for recitation. Each poem occupies a spread, with simple, hand-drawn illustrations on each page according to the poem's meaning, helping readers enter the mood for recitation. Additionally, a corresponding QR code is placed in the bottom right corner of each poem. Scanning the code provides an "led recitation audio" for that poem, offering an example and guidance for readers to participate in group readings.

You have come to this world; you must see the sun. May you gain something from reciting. May you gain something from poetry. Even if not, may you fall in love with Hai Zi.
