How to own a corner...

Another exquisite illustration...

The translation:
there is a child in my heart.
when she feels that she is not in sync with the world, she would hide in a corner.
there are songs for her to sing, riddles to solve, memories to contemplate, dreams to be picked up and collected like fallen leaves


in the corner, she breathes lightly, walks slowly
the spaces between the notes becomes music
there is a beautiful new world in the silence and blank space


there is a child in my heart
each time she hides in the corner, it is but an temporary absence because
she needs timeto find her place in the world again


Thank you aunty_p and cat_aunty for translating the blurb for me.
I did think from the pictures that it must be about finding your space in the world. Where silence and time is your friend.
So I will probbaly go to Kinokuniya to get the rest of the books :)

How to own a corner...

I saw this book at Popular today and decided to buy it. Its in Chinese so I only get to look at the pictures. I think its about finding your place in the world (although I may be wrong). I love the cat pictures but the rest of the book is pretty exquisite. It features colourful drawings of young people against a backdrop of nature and everyone is always quiet and restful. I wonder what the book says. I have taken some pics and of cos I have also placed the blurb in the entry. Can anyone tell me what the book is supposed to be about and who the author is?

Most of the pictures are like this. The human bean is always in the corner, very small compared to the vastness of nature..

Picture one.....

Picture 2...I assume its an explantion...

[Shhhh]

I like this one very much. The next one shows the boy putting his finger through the wall to stop the water from rushing into the compound, much like the story of the Dutch boy who saved the Netherlands from the floods...

[I walked..very long, along the way heard the mermaid singing, she sounds melancholic, sad/pitiful, realised in a corner of the world lies some sad stories.]

Then it showed this picture of the boy in bed with his cat, looking at his finger. Btw , when the water pushed through the wall, the boy had a fun time playing in the water....

This pic is one of my most favourite :))

Ok this is the blurb. If anyone can tell me what it says, I would be grateful. I think I will try to find more of his/her book once I know who it is.

NOTE: The words in bold have been translated for me by aunty_p. Thank you aunty_p :)
