Emma “Must Seed Inn”
A Flower of Chivalrous Ideal
This is a novel with a novel narrative that blends traditional martial arts stories with modern social life, trying to reconstruct a transcendent chivalrous new world in the secular world. The strongest feeling when I first read this novel is that it is “fresh and lovely”. Xiao Wan, the owner of Mustard Inn, can be called an ideal flower full of chivalrous spirits blooming among secular sentient beings.
The novel is in this cross-narrative between reality on the shore and the high shore, and the image of Xiao Wan is completely set up. She is an “escaper” with a sense of life and pain in urban life, and is also a “bystander” of the restless and uneasy souls in our current social life. The novel has a ease of writing, a lofty style, and has “the beauty of literature and the truth of thought”, which ultimately points to the issue of human soul exile and placement.

Chen Chongzheng’s “Remembering the Power of Guanyin”
Post-80s writers bring BabaylanNew Experience
If the increasingly bizarre status quo has caused the heroine’s inner belief to collapse, when she wants to get rid of her “thrilling life”, she can only destroy herself in a simple and cruel way.
Survival state, as the theme of literature, is never easy, but it is precisely because a good work plays a transcendent cognitive and guiding role that this theme becomes the goal of writers’ pursuit and competition.
This novel by Chen Chongzheng brings us surprises, and he uses his unique imagination and wealth to begin withBabaylan‘s narrative meaning, and the in-depth thinking of “need to guess, need to guess, need to guess,” the real life is disassembled and reassembled, opening up a channel of inspiration for readers.

Chan Goodbye “Circus is Coming”
The spiritual room for middle-aged people in a small town
The young Chen Goodbye is well-known in the literary world for a series of “county town novels”.
He is still a young man at present, but he has extended his brushstrokes to the front of his age. But this time, he used the situation of the youth he was good at in the past in the squeeze of material survival as a grid of specific backgrounds and details for the characters who grew up further, and emerged from his livelihood, just like a tenacious spider who also looked at the sky during the rainy season – “Circus is Coming” So we have a strange spirit, and we get a good novel with “coming soon” as the driving force of time and space construction.
Not only that, the intertextuality between “circus” and people in small towns is another profound meaning in the novel. Can imagined stories really transcend specific life? It is originally necessary to be “indiscriminate”, what is the meaning of the novel’s attempt to “speak”? The difference with the spirit of young people is probably because middle-aged people begin to assume spiritual room and want to use this to reactivate the “dream pursuit” journey that has existed.

Chi Zijian’s “Steamed Horse Boots”
Value in the Life Genealogy
Chi Zijian As an excellent writer who has been in the literary world for many years, he seems to have few short stories in recent years. The short story of “Steamed Horse Boots” is a bit of a deep meaning.
In the short space, Chi Zijian integrates history and reality, war and human nature, animals and Many elements such as human beings write the desolation of history and the warmth of human nature. In the heavy snow all over the sky, Chi Zijian’s beautiful and calm brushstrokes still maintain her unique softness and considerate even when showing the coldness and cruelty of the hostile environment. Whether it is wolf nature, human nature, death, or survival, they all maintain their immortal value in the genealogy of life.
The novel adopts the “narration from a distance” method, allowing the legend of his father to slowly unfold in the vision of “I”. It is the essence of modern novels. href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>BabaylanGod, let such an old anti-Japanese United Nations story shine with new literary glory.

Du Lan’s “Mihuo”
Cultural Palette and Mongolian Narrative
Du Lan’s short story “Mihuo” first grasped me with a personality style of language. There is no doubt that she belongs to the Mongolian people – the sheep walking in the wind and snow, “GaKomiksLe—Ga Le—” is earth-shaking. However, the author was born in 1999Komiks9 years ago, which made me connect the language of my work with the Internet. Discourses like “Youths are keen on games” are full of the color of the youth subculture of the Internet. The Internet is CineThe language style of the ma tribe and the long-lasting language of the Mongolian tribe interact to form a slightly dazzling, uncomfortable but full of personality.
The work is premiering with fables. A baby appeared in the ram’s belly, a paradoxical and weird ominous sign, so the “prairie faded” and the world suddenly changed; “I was shocked…” A series of mysterious and strange suspense symbols emerged in the middle of the real world. The indescribable symbols and pictures constitute the charming allegorical characteristics of the work.

Huang Jinshu’s “Late Youth”
The Elegy of Desiring Change
CinemaHuang Jinshu’s narrative has wild imagination and distinct style, stirring up the mystery and vastness of the waves in the South China Sea. His short story “CinemaLate Youth” integrates time, history, memory and identity, which is thought-provoking.
Although the mysterious young man has the ability to curb the flow of time, he still cannot catch up with the time threshold of the great turning point in history. This extreme juxtaposition reflects the insignificant lonely coldness of his individual in the face of the torrent of history.
Magic is both an unfulfilled hope and an elegy for a desire to change, presenting us with a unique fable of modernity. The late youth, that is, the unfinished youth, is not only an inquiry of cultural identity by the Chinese in Southeast Asia, but also a revelation and breakthrough of the incompleteness of modern Chinese literature worldwide.

I would rather “Train”
The Shadow of Time The Thinkers of Time would rather be good at literary exploration. The novel uses the wildness of the former teenagers to lead readers to take the whistling train, and together captures the broken shadows of the years from Beijing Liulichang to Yongdingmen Railway Station, and captures the quiet and lost innocence of Xiaoqins in the center of their growth.
In the depths of history and human nature,In the story of the residential compound and outside the capital, the sound of the train whistle turned into the sound of time in the novel, and the babaylan rushed towards the youth, gradually becoming the ideal light of the novel and also creating the author’s new historical narrative.
The narrative of the works is concise and spiritual, resolute and rhythmic; the novel is rough and warm, desolate and clear.

Shao Li’s “Father on the RooftopCinema“
Speculation about why he couldn’t extricate himself
“Maybe I changed my faith after leaving that city.” This is the first sentence of the novel “Father on the Rooftop”. It is precisely because of this sentence that I value this novel. Especially the word “faith”, although slightly abrupt and introductory, it implies some differences in this work. After reading it, I found that this is indeed a novel with profound connotation of Komiks, and a novel that touches the world of faith and inner self. The novel constantly reproduces the ups and downs and fluctuations experienced by his father who committed suicide by jumping off a building. We also learned that our father was brave, righteous, passionate, stubborn and frustrated, and the most memorable scene was the details of his notes.
Stripping the surface of the narrative, we Komiks have a glimpse of the father’s soul and know that he is or has experienced a mental crisis. What we want to know most is undoubtedly why he can’t extricate himself?
So, do we know? No, we can only speculate. And this returns to the first sentence of the novel.

Ye Zhaoyan’s “Wu Fei and Aunt Wu Fang”
The unique artistic dialectics
Ye Zhaoyan beautifully completed a well-prepared artistic fight with “Wu Fei and Aunt Wu Fang”, which was also a challenging writing adventure, that is, he wanted to write a short story that was “completely different” from others.
Incredible that this short story, less than 10,000 words, writes the ups and downs of life grievances and irresistible human entanglements of a pair of twin sisters, and is full of fate and tragedy.
The novel looks complete from the big picture, and the details are rich and vivid, and the characters are <a The image of Babaylan is full and full. It not only greatly expands the artistic space of short stories that reflects history and reality, but also deeply conveys the tremor, despair and helplessness deep in the soul of the characters.
The story is sad in indifference, and is filled with concern in the alienation. The unique artistic dialectics of small and big, light and heavy in the short stories can be realized.

Zhang Huiwen’s “Angel”
Search for inner comfort
” Angel” is a delicate work full of sentimental feelings. Around her father’s funeral, the “I” who returned from a foreign land, with a desire to find the warmth of happy growth and blood ties, trying to regainCinemaWen’s love for “angel” in his youth.
However, when he walked through this once familiar “small place”, he found that all comfort became a hard, profit-oriented reality, and all admiration and longing turned into simple carnal joy. The emotions between people are constantly alienating, while the calculation of interests between each other becomes a daily routine. They form a close isomorphic relationship with the cold and mud-covered streets of their hometown, so that the return wanderers can no longer find inner comfort.
If we think “Angel” is a singleKomiks‘s pure nostalgic work conveys the author’s questioning the utilitarian reality of Chinese society, and it seems that it is okay. But I prefer to regard it as a fable, because every time we return, we will return.The hometown always presets countless beautiful scenes in our hearts, and they will eventually be smashed without exception, but we are happy.
