after Yiyun Li 1. Chinese Author Yiyun Li once describes the effect before and after advertisement with plastic surgeries or hair-loss treatments as “the definitiveness of that phrase, before and after, with nothing muddling the in-between” in her essay
Pardon me for my bad English... but I suffocate reading your words. I was 14 when the incident happened, and I can feel the emergency atmosphere. It's like a nightmare that keeps me up every night until tonight. Another 14 years has passed. With the help of the bridge, Can Tho now is 'developing' more than ever, of course on materialistic wealth, but people seem to forget what happened. Nothing have been written in books, children know nothing about the bridge. More and more vehicles are on the roads nowadays, streets and roads are designed to fit more cars and trucks, not pedestrian. Everyday I commute by motorbike, 'cause there's no other choice to reduce the amount of exhaust I inhale. Roads are being expanded or leveled, even the ones that are completely fine, for more money. Cars ignore traffic rules and run at their own's will. People forget about what took them to school years ago: moms with a bicycle (or without). My classmate who comes back from Australia praises the "lively" and "vivid" city, he cannot see what I, a citizen, feel living in and suffocating in it.
