Okay, so this is an interesting one. Like others here we also have a “Table of Contents”. The language is comfortable.

First read the “ Spring again and summer” part one and part two. When you get familiar with the ideas and book culture then go for “ the deeper the darkness, the brighter the stars shine”.
