(Russian) Букет из трав с ручья Ённам
Истории маленьких неприметных травинок, подсмотренные во время ежедневных прогулок в разные времена года. Тонко прорисованные картинки и тёплые слова автора раскрывают нам полный жизни мир городских трав и цветов, о существовании которого мы можем даже не подозревать, пока внимательно не присмотримся. На примере этих скромных растений, которые день за днём растут и тянутся вверх несмотря на то, что никто их даже не замечает, автор показывает нам, что простая, неприметная с виду жизнь наполнена прекрасным смыслом.
(English) A Bouquet of Grass from Yeonnam Brook
A Bouquet of Grass from Yeonnam Brook warmly describes the life of small patches of grass growing near Hongje Brook, along which the author takes walks throughout all four seasons. With her delicate illustrations and heart-felt writing, the author shows that there is life in grass that grows in the city, which we might fail to notice if we do not look at it carefully. By celebrating the life of the grass earnestly living its humble life, this book reveals its support for our everyday life, which, though it might not be splendid, is not ignorable, either. It also shows that life can be beautiful even if it is not the life of a big tree or fancy flower.
