The books Fu Lei suggested in his home letter to read in the summer are Danner's and Eddy Ambler's, Russell's "The Road to Happiness" and "John Christopher".

I suggest you read these two books this summer: Danner's "Philosophy of Art" and Etiemble's "New Journey to the West" (I have two volumes of this book, It was a gift from the author and I will send you a copy immediately). Reading the first book can give you an understanding of art and general cultural history, while the second book can enhance your understanding of modern China.

If you can find a copy of Russell's "The Road to Happiness" in a used bookstore, please read it carefully. Although this book was written thirty years ago, it is full of wisdom and wealth. There are many philosophical words, which will never go out of style, so they are still of great benefit to today's readers. I hope you can also finish reading "John Christophe". It is very difficult for a young housewife like you to continue to make progress and persist in self-education throughout her life. I can imagine how busy you are, but it is worth working hard for. Mom is almost forty-nine years old and still "struggles" to learn something new every day (learn English). Have I ever told you that Mrs. Bronstein is as busy as an average middle-class housewife, but she still insists on practicing piano every day (only one hour to one and a half hours a day, but she gets results over time), and she can still Playing and broadcasting on radio. This kind of courage and will is indeed admirable, almost a heroic act!
