2016年,苏州诚品书店新立不久,年初一曾专程至苏州打卡并文《金鸡湖畔书香浓》。往事历历,一晃已七年,诚品董事长吴清友也于2017年早早离世。今日再来,二探诚品,所为追忆,也为缅怀。
所持设备,GR III与IIIx,为呼应七年前所持之X70。
标题“新年游”,亦为呼应去年新年《苏州中心新年游》。记得当时回来没几天苏州和上海疫情便爆发了,在阴郁气氛中接到了社区网格员深夜疲惫的流调电话,“收获”人生唯一一枚带星绿码……今人欢呼雀跃、车水马龙之际,可还记得魔幻的三年与无数默默奉献的普通人?





与七年前一样,开了这么久的车,填饱肚子为首要。
永丰食集,台湾市井小食。








商场内遛弯。







久违的书店,仍旧热度不减。

我爱的《庄子》,语录高悬正中。







人太多了,无法清净,商业与书,如何得兼?
预报说今日-8℃,可天台上晒太阳却不冷。




印象中苏州的咖啡调得不错。七年前的咖啡馆“Van Gogh”早已踪迹难觅,下楼走进有个诙谐名字的咖啡馆“two birds one stone”(一石二鸟)。

窗外人来人往,户内气质男女。




花魁SOE咖啡豆芳香扑鼻,心情大佳。

生巧抹茶凝乳只剩了最后一块……抢到了。

喝了拉花才显露出的slogan,一想到假期余额已不足,瞬间有些共鸣。

在店员误收了我未竟的咖啡杯后,抱歉声中我又获得了一满杯……这个下午很温暖(胃很充实)。
七年前喝完咖啡去了金鸡湖畔月光码头,七年后也不能例外。码头就在诚品书店南大门西侧百米处。





金鸡湖上飞过孤零零一只白鹭,远不及这几年我鼋头渚漫天飞舞的千只红嘴鸥。


几年不见,多了不少游艇。

来这里打卡的上海游客很多。

苏州之门,前几周出差刚去过。苏州的繁华集中于此。



看到“归”雕塑,想到要归家了。


记得以前认识的北方博友说过,江南的冬天,永远郁郁葱葱。
南北的严冬终已过去,开放的春天都已来到。

打个卡,纪念今天,纪念书店的2023。

三年来诚品书店关了许多,欣慰的看到苏州店的繁荣仍在持续。
