Character evaluation

With plain face, black long straight hair, white skirt, black stockings and black shoes, Guo Xiaolu always appears in people's eyes as a completely Oriental woman. Her face is a little big. When she thinks or listens, her eyes will bulge. Moreover, Guo Xiaolu's film style is unique, fresh and thought-provoking. In the novel lover's edition of Chinese English dictionary, the author tells the story in a readable style, creating a unique charm. The novel seems naive or ridiculed monologue, self question and self answer, dialogue, full of humor and critical reflection, let readers aftertaste (beifang.com, International Herald, comprehensive review of publishing wide angle).
