The classic love story across the centuries in "The Bridge's Lost Dreams"

The novel "The Lost Dreams of the Covered Bridge" is mainly narrated in the form of memories. The author once again recreates the love between Francesca and Robert Kincaid through the diary and investigation of the heroine Francesca. story.

A brother and sister rummaged through their mother’s belongings and uncovered a dusty past. Francesca, a middle-aged married woman, lacked passion in her married life after many years of marriage. Once her husband was away for a week for something. At this time, National Geographic magazine photographer Kincaid asked Francesca for directions when he was shooting a covered bridge (looking for the Rothman Bridge). People are attracted to each other, and Francesca gets in Kincaid's van to show him the way. Later that night, Kincaid is invited by Francesca to her house for dinner. After dinner, Kincaid left for the Rossman Bridge to take pictures of the covered bridge at sunrise. Francesca left a note on the bridge before Kincaid arrived, "If you still want to have dinner, you can go there." Kincaid finished taking the photos. Then passed. Francesca had gone to the street to buy new clothes, dress herself up, and prepare dinner to wait for Kincaid's arrival.

After Kincaid arrived, the two danced in the kitchen. In the next four days of perfect love, Francesca chose responsibility in the face of love and responsibility. Kincaid respected Fer's decision, but... In exchange for a lifetime of nostalgia for the two of them.

Francesca mentioned in the letter that she missed Kincaid every day, and Kincaid left silently in order to fulfill Fernando, and resisted missing her and not disturbing Fernando's life, even though he had several friends before meeting Fernando. Woman, however, after falling in love with Fu, Fu was the last woman he fell in love with, and the only woman he loved in the rest of his life. Until his death, he still thought of Fu. The ending of the story is that Kincaid's ashes were scattered on the covered bridge after his death, and Fu's last wish was also to scatter his ashes on the covered bridge, so that he could be with Kincaid forever in the place where they fell in love.

Although this is a story about an extramarital affair, perhaps in the face of moral ethics, the love story between Fu and Jin is "shameful" and cannot be accepted by the world, and may even be cast aside. However, the relationship between them is a real love, and it is a love that is strongly attracted to each other. However, for the sake of responsibility, Fu couldn't bear to hurt her husband and children, and had the heart to choose to give up his love. For the sake of family and responsibility, he chose to stay. Kim, on the other hand, respected her choice because he loved and understood Fo (Kim said that leaving was the most difficult decision he had ever made). Even though they never saw each other again after separation and almost lost contact, they were always in each other's hearts, missing and loving each other forever. But their love cannot be told to others (in order to protect each other and their families), they choose to bear it silently alone.

Some people may say that it may be because they failed to be together, and what they did not get is always the best. I don't think so. If they always felt that the other person was the best just because they couldn't get each other, they wouldn't choose to be "alone for the rest of their lives" because they loved each other (Jin never got married again). Generally speaking, if they feel that "" the other person is the best because they can't get it, but this does not make a person willing to choose to love the other person for a lifetime and be alone for the other person (in that case, they just feel that the other person is the best in their hearts) Best, just psychologically, the behavioral performance in reality is inconsistent with the psychological idea). So I am deeply impressed by their love.

Finally, I would like to mention that when her husband passed away, he said, "Francesca, I know you have had your own dream, and I'm sorry I couldn't give it to you." Her husband is also a kind person, so all the characters in the story are kind. Everyone is performing their duties and working hard in accordance with the so-called moral ethics and the so-called "normal social order". Living and adapting to this society.
