Скачать или смотреть My Memories of Old Beijing | Cheng Nan Jiu Shi |城南旧事— When Childhood Becomes a Memory

🌿 Every childhood is a city — a place that exists only in memory.

In this episode of Bookwaves, I revisit Cheng Nan Jiu Shi — My Memories of Old Beijing by Lin Haiyin, a quiet masterpiece that captures the fragility of growing up and the tenderness of remembering.

Through the eyes of a little girl named Yingzi, we wander through the lanes of old Beijing, meeting the gentle souls who shaped her world — the lost child Xiaojie, the sorrowful Song Mama, the camel driver’s son, and her beloved father whose flowers slowly fall.

This isn’t just a story about one girl; it’s a reflection on all of us — how love, loss, and time shape who we become.
