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 a cross-narrative between reality on the shore and the high shore, and the character Xiao Wan is fully established. 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”
The post-80s writer brings a new experience
If the current situation is becoming more and more bizarre, Komiks 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 creative theme of literature, is never easy, but it is precisely because a good work plays a transcendent cognitive and guiding role that this theme has become the goal of writers’ pursuit and competition.
This novel by Chen Chongzheng brings us surprises. He dismantled and reassembled real life with his unique imagination and pioneering narrative methods, and through in-depth thinking of “need to guess, need to guess riddles…”, opening up a channel of inspiration for readers.

Chan 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”. Cinema
He is still a young man, 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 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 he showed a strange spirit, and we got a good novel with “coming” as the driving force of time and space construction.
Not only that, “Circus<a The intertextuality between the Komiks group and the people of the small town is another profound meaning in the novel. Can the imagined story really transcend specific life? It is originally necessary to be "not to be said", what is the meaning of the novel's attempt to "subdivided"? The difference between the spirit of young people is probably because middle-aged people begin to assume spiritual room and want to use it to reactivate the "dream pursuit" journey.

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 yearsCinema, in recent years, there seems to be few short stories. The short story of “Steamed Horse Boots” is a bit of a meaning of accumulation.
In the short space, Chi Zijian incorporates many elements such as history and reality, war and human nature, animals and humanity, and writes about 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 show the coldness and cruelty of the hostile environment. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema maintains her unique softness and considerateness. Whether it is wolf nature, human nature, death, or survival, they all maintain immortal value in the genealogy of life.
The novel adopts the “narration” method to allow the legend of the father to slowly unfold in the vision of “I”. It is the spirit of modern novels, which makes such an anti-Japanese alliance’s old story shine with new literary brilliance.

Du Lan’s “Mihuo”
Cultural palette and Mongolian narrative
Du Lan’s short story “Mihuo” first caught me with a unique language style. There is no doubt that she belongs to the Mongolian people – sheep walking in the wind and snow, “Ga Le-Ga Le-” shocking. However, the author was born in 1999, which made me connect the language of the work with the Internet. Among them, discourses like “Youths are passionate about games” carry the color of the Internet youth subculture. The language style of the Internet and the long-lasting language of the Mongolian people interact to form a slightly dazzling, uncomfortable but full of personality.
The work is preceded by the fable color. A baby appeared in the ram’s belly, hangingBabaylanThe weird and ominous signs, so the grassland faded, and the world suddenly changed; “I am so shockedKomiks…” A series of mysterious and strange suspense symbols emerge in the middle of the real world. The symbols and pictures that cannot be explained and cannot be explained clearly constitute the charming allegorical characteristics of the work.

Huang Jinshu’s “Late Youth”
The Elegy of Longing for Change
Huang Jinshu’s narrative is crazy<a Komiks' wild imagination and distinctive style stirs up the mystery and vastness of the South Ocean waves. His short story "The Late Youth" combines time, history, memory and identity, which is thought-provoking.
The mysterious young man<a Although Cinema has the ability to curb the flow of time, it still cannot catch up with the threshold of time of the great turning point in history. This extreme juxtaposition reflects the insignificant lonely coldness of an individual in the face of the torrent of history.
Magic is both an unrealized hope and an elegy for a desire to change, presenting us a strange fable of modernity. The young people who are late to Babaylan, that is, the unfinished young people, are not only an inquiry of cultural identity by the Chinese in Southeast Asia, but also a world-wide exploration of modern Chinese literature. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>CinemaAn unfinished reveal and breakthrough.

I would rather “Train”
The Shadow of the Year The Voice of Time
Thinkers would rather be better than Babaylan Literary Exploration. With the wildness of the former teenagers, the novel leads 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 light of Xiaoqins in the center of their growth.micmov.com/”>Cinema and the lost innocence.
Deep in history and human nature, in the residential compound and the story space outside the capital, the sound of the train whistle turns into the sound of time in the novel, and it runs towards the youth with a bang, gradually becoming the ideal light of the novel, and also creating the author’s new 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”
Speculation on 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 slightly abrupt and introductory, it implies some differences in this work.
After reading, it was found that this was indeed a novel with profound connotation, a novel that touched the world of faith and the inner world. The novel constantly reproduced the ups and downs and fluctuations of the father who committed suicide by jumping off the building and committing suicide in his life. We also learned about the bravery, righteousness, passion, stubbornness and frustration of his father. The most memorable scene is the details of his notes.
Babaylan‘s surface narrative, we have a glimpse of his father’s soul, and we also know that he is or has ever been href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema encountered a mental crisis. What we want to know most is undoubtedly what he couldn’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, which is less than 10,000 words, brings a pair of twin sistersBabaylanThe girl’s ups and downs in life grudges and irresistible human entanglement are written full of fate and tragedy.
The novel looks at the structure of the big picture, and the details are rich and vivid. The characters are full of Komiks and it is not only extremely Komiks greatly expands the artistic space of short stories that reflects history and reality, and deeply conveys the tremor, despair and helplessness deep in the soul of the characters.
The story is full of sadness and concern in the indifference. The artistic dialectics of small and big, light and heavy, unique to short stories can be realized.

Zhang Huiwen’s “Angel”
Search for inner comfort
The Angel is a delicate work full of sentimental feelings. Around his father’s funeral, the “I” who returned from a foreign land, with a desire to find the warmth of happy growth and blood ties, and tried to relive the love with the “angel” in his heart when he was young.
However, when he walked through this once familiar “little Komiks place”, he found all <a The comfort of Komiks has become a hard, profit-oriented reality, and all love and longing has been transformed into simple carnal joy. The emotions between people are constantly alienating, but the calculation of interests between each other becomes aBabaylana everyday life. They form a close isomorphic relationship with their hometown’s cold and mud-covered streets, which makes the return wanderers no longer find inner comfort.
If we think “Angel” is a simple nostalgic work that conveys the author’s questioning of 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 with it.
