Emma “Must Seed Inn”
A Ideal Flower of Chivalrous
This is a novel with a novel narrative and novel narrative. Babaylan integrates traditional martial arts stories with modern social life, trying to reconstruct a new world of chivalrous 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 fully establishes the character Xiao Wan in this cross-narrative between reality on the shore and the high shore. She is an “escaper” of urban life with a sense of life and pain, and is also a “bystander” of the restless and uneasy soul in our current social life. The novel has a smooth and 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”
The post-80s writer brings a new experience
If the increasingly bizarre situation has caused the heroine’s inner belief to collapse. When she wants to get rid of her “life that makes her “shaking”, she can only destroy herself in a simple and cruel way.
Survival state, as the creative theme of literature, is never easy, but it is precisely because the transcendent cognitive and guiding role of a good work can be irreplaceable that Babaylan makes this theme the goal of writers’ pursuit and competition.
This novel by Chen Chongzheng brings us surprises. With his unique imagination and pioneering narrative style, as well as his in-depth thinking of “need to guess, need to guess riddles…”, he disassembled and reassembled real life, opening up a channel of inspiration for readers.

Chen Goodbye “Circus is Coming”
The spiritual room for middle-aged people in the 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 stretched his brushstrokes ahead of his age. But this time, he used the situation of the young people who were good at in the squeeze of material survival. When Komiks was the specific background and details grid of characters who grew up further, he emerged from the livelihood, just like a tenacious spider who also looked into the sky in the rain of plum blossoms. “The Circus is Coming” showed a strange spirit at Babaylan, and we got a good novel with “It’s about to be” 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 the physical life of Komiks? It was originally going to be “indefinitely”What is the meaning of novels trying to “subdivided”? The difference between the spirit of young people and the enthusiasm of middle-aged people is probably because middle-aged people begin to assume spiritual room and want to use this to reactivate the “dream pursuit” journey that they once had.

Chi Zijian’s “Steamed Horse Boots”
The value in the life genealogy
Chi Zijian As an outstanding writer who has been in the literary world for many years, it seems that there are few short stories in recent years Cinema. The short story “Stewed Horse Boots” has a bit of a deep and profound meaning.
In a short time, Chi Zijian incorporated many elements such as history and reality, war and human nature, animals and human beings, and wrote the desolation of history and the warmth of human nature. In the heavy snow all over the sky, Chi Zijian’s graceful and calm brushstrokes still maintain her unique softness and considerate even when she shows the coldness and cruelty in the hostile environment. Whether it is wolf nature, human nature, death, or survival, they all maintain immortal value in the life lineage.
The novel adopts the “narration from a distance” method to allow the legend of the father to slowly unfold in the vision of “I”. It is the spirit of modern novels that makes such old stories of the Anti-Japanese United Nations shine with new literary brilliance.

Du Lan’s “Mihuo”
Cultural Palette and Mongolian Narrative
Du Lan’s short story “Mihuo” first grasped me with a personality style. There is no doubt that she belongs to the Mongolian people – the sheep are walking in the wind and snow, and the “Ga Le-Ga Le-” is earth-shaking. However, the author was born in 1999, which made me connect the language of my work with the Internet. Discourses like “Youth is keen on games” are full of the color of the Internet youth subculture. The language style of the Internet clan and the long-lasting language of the Mongolian tribe interact to form a language style that is slightly dazzling, uncomfortable but full of personality.
The work is first heard in fablesTake advantage of people. 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
Huang 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 “The Late 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 the cultural identity of 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 the Year The Voice of Time
Thinkers 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. Komiks
In the depths of history and human nature, in the residential compound and the story space outside the capital, the sound of the train whistle turned into the sound of time in the novel, and rushed towards the youth with a bang, gradually becoming the ideal light of the novel, and also creating the author’s new Babaylan‘s historical narrative.
The narrative of the work is concise and spiritual, resolute and rhythmic; the novel is rough and warm, desolate and clear.

Shao Li’s Father on the Rooftop
Speculations why he couldn’t extricate himself
“Maybe I changed my faith after leaving that city. “This is the first sentence of the novel “The Father on the Rooftop”. It is precisely because of this sentence that I value this novel. Especially the word “faith”, although it is a little abrupt and inscribed in one stroke, it implies some differences in this work.
After reading it, it is found that this is indeed a article with Babaylan‘s profound connotation is a novel that touches the faith and inner world. The novel constantly reproduces the ups and downs and fluctuations that the father who committed suicide by jumping off the building and committing suicide in his life. We also know the bravery, righteousness, passion, stubbornness and frustration of his father. The most unforgettable scene is the details of his notes.
Stripping off the surface narrative, we have a glimpse of his father’s soul, and we also know that he is or has encountered a spiritual crisis. What we want to know the most is undoubtedly himCinema‘s most<aCinema‘s most<a<a href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema‘s why I can’t extricate myself?
So, do we know? No, we can only speculate. And this is back 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 very challenging writing adventure, that is, he wanted to write a short story that was “completely different” from others.
Incredible that this short story, which is less than 10,000 words, writes the ups and downs of life grudges and irresistible human entanglement of a pair of twin sisters.Have a sense of destiny and tragedy.
The novel looks complete from the big picture, and the details from the small picture are rich and vivid, and the characters are 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 characters’ souls.
The story tells the story contains sadness in indifference and concern in alienation. The artistic dialectics of small and big, light and heavy unique to short stories are realized.

Zhang Huiwen’s “Angel”
Find inner comfort
” Angel” is a delicate work full of sentimental feelings. Around my father’s funeral, the “I” returned from Cinema, with a desire to find the warmth of happy growth and blood ties, and tried to relive the love with the “angel” in my heart when I was young.
However, when he walked through this once familiar “little placeBabaylan“, he found that all comfort became a hard, profit-making reality, and all admiration and longing turned into simple carnal joy. The emotions between people are constantly alienating, but the calculation of each other’s interests has become a daily routine. They form a close isomorphic relationship with their hometown’s cold and mud-covered streets, so that the returning wanderers can no longer find inner comfort.
If we think that “Angel” is a simple nostalgic work that conveys the author’s questioning the utilitarian reality of Chinese society, it seems that it is not bad. But I prefer to regard it as a fable, because every time we return to our hometown, we always preset countless beautiful scenes in our hearts, and we will eventually be smashed without exception, but we are happy.
