When I saw this book of poems on promotion I just had to download it.  Now, after reading it, I would gladly have paid full price for the book. The poems by Feng Zhou featured in this book have a quiet power that draws you in slowly and doesn’t let go, not even after you have finished reading the book. More than one image stayed with me and will continue to remind me of summer love for years to come, I’m sure.Feng Zhou uses simple words to paint images and ideas that are complex, insightful and beautiful.  This is where the magic of his poems lies, in my opinion. Love is a universal emotion and, as such, we should not try to complicate it, not even when it comes to love poetry.In short, the poems in this book will tug at your heartstrings and make you see the magic of love just a bit more clearly. At least they had such an effect on me.
