The hot water is gone, and I still haven't figured out the problem.

The popular serialized comic "One Week" by cartoonist Lu Ran is collected for the first time! This is a new creative challenge she embarked on at the end of 2023, with new updates released every Sunday and still ongoing.

In this book, Lu Ran uses simple lines to record her daily thoughts and feelings, sensitively capturing fleeting ideas and accurately transforming them into concise language and images. Some are like prose poems, some like philosophical maxims, and some like movie scenes, all directly facing the depths of the soul.

In the "leveling up and fighting monsters" of daily life, everyone constantly encounters new problems, sparks new inspirations, and picks up new feelings. There are changes that grow with the seasons, and also familiar cycles that crop up from time to time. Work modes that constantly deplete oneself, terrifyingly distorting social interactions, moments where words are on the tip of the tongue but can't be expressed... While this book may not provide answers to such problems, it can offer resonance and a moment of relaxation.

One week has ended, leaving many traces. A new week is about to begin, how's your mental state?
