The Love of The Hawthorn Tree

During my recent trip to Beijing, I stumbled upon a mega sized movie poster for this new Zhang Yimou's latest film. At first glance, the poster seems to have told it all - the love between 2 teenagers. Not expecting much of it except the fact that it is all but another artistic work from Zhang, I came across the novel in the bookstore. The cover caught my attention and i thought that I should just have a read and see if the story is as compelling. The start seems long and draggy and I almost gave up on the story but my persistence paid off when the story unfolded itself in many layers and the beauty of purest love in a time of civil unrest.
So close with almost being done with the book and I already know the ending. Completely smitten by the story and looking forward to seeing this on the big screens.
My Favorite phrase:
我不能等你一年零一个月了,
我也不能等你到二十五岁了,
但我会等你一辈子。。。。。。
