Emma “Must Seed Inn”
A Flower of Chivalrous Ideal
This is a novel with a novel narrative that 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 regarded as an ideal flower full of chivalrous spirits that blooms among the secular beings.
The novel is a cross-narrative between reality on the shore and the high shore, and the image of Xiao Wan is completely established.om/”>Babaylan. She is an “escaper” with the texture of life and pain in urban life, and is also a “bystander” of the restless and uneasy soul in our current social life. The novel has a smooth brushstroke, a high-end 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 href=”https://comicmov.com/”>KomiksRemembering the power of Guanyin”
Post-80s writers bring Komiks to a new experience
If the increasingly bizarre situation has put the heroine’s inner beliefs in the faceBabaylan collapsed. When she wanted to get rid of her “thrilling life”, she could 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 makes this theme the goal of writers’ pursuit and competition.
Chen Chongzheng’s novel brings us surprises, he uses his unique imagination and a pioneering narrative method, and through href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Babaylan‘s in-depth thinking of “need to guess, need to guess riddles…” disassembled and reassembled real life, 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”.
He is still a young manYears, but the strokes have been extended to the front of his age. But this time, he used the situation of the young man 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 had to look into the sky during the rainy season – “The Circus is Coming”, so he showed a strange spirit, and we got a good novel with “It’s about to” 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? The fact that there is originally something that needs to be “not to be said” is what is the meaning of the novel trying to “speak”? 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 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 “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 humanity, animals and humanity, and wrote about the desolation of history and the warmth of humanity. In the heavy snow all over the sky, Chi Zijian’s graceful and calm brushstrokes still maintain her unique softness and considerate even though she shows the coldness and cruelty in a hostile environment. 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 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 again allowed me to connect the language of the work to the Internet, which is similar to “Little”Discourses like “a passionate about games” are filled with the color of the subculture of the Internet youth. The language style of the Internet and the long-toned language of the Mongolian people interact to form a slightly dazzling and discomfortable language.
Babaylan but full of personality.
The work is preceded by the fable. A baby appeared in the ram’s belly, a paradoxical and weird ominous sign, so “the grassland 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 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 Desiring Change
Huang Jinshu’s narrative has wild imagination and a distinctive style, stirring up the SouthKomiks href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Babaylan The mystery and vastness of the waves. 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 insignificance of the individual in front of the torrent of history.
Magic is both an unfulfilled hope and an elegy for a desire to change, presenting us a strange fable of modernity. Late youth, that is, an 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 around the world.

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 take the train that whistled away Babaylan to capture Beijing LiuThe broken shadows of the years from Lichang to Yongdingmen Railway Station capture the clarity of Xiaoqins in the center of growth and the lost innocence of their childhood.
In the depths of history and human nature, in the story space outside the residential compound and the capital, the sound of the train whistle turned into the sound of time in the novel, and rushed towards the young man with a bang, gradually becoming a small light.Cinema said that the light of ideals also made 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 Rooftop”
Speculation 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 connotations, and a novel that touches the world of faith and inner world. The novel constantly reproduces the ups and downs and fluctuations experienced by his father who committed suicide by jumping off a building. We have also learned about the bravery, righteousness, passion, stubbornness and frustration of his father. The most memorable scene is the details of his notes.
Stripping the surface narrative, we have a glimpse of the father’s soul and knowing that he is or has encountered a spiritual 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”
Exclusive artistic dialectics
Ye Zhaoyan beautifully completed a well-prepared artistic fight with “Wu Fei and Aunt Wu Fang”, which is also a very challenging time.A warlike writing adventure is that he wants to write short stories that are “completely different” from others.
UnbelievableCinemaIn believing, this short story, less than 10,000 words, writes the ups and downs of life grudges and irresistible human entanglements of a pair of twin sisters, full of destiny and tragedy.
The novel has a complete structure from the big perspective, and the details are rich and vivid. The characters have a fullness that is about to emerge. It not only greatly expands the artistic space of the short story 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 can be realized.

Zhang Huiwen’s “Angel”
Find inner comfort
” Angel” is a delicate work full of sentimental feelings. Around my father’s funeral, “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 Cinema” in my heart when I was young.
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, but the calculation of each other’s interests has become a daily routine. They form a close isomorphic relationship with the cold and mud-covered streets of their hometown, 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 set countless beautiful scenes in our hearts, and we are finally smashed without exception, but we are happy.
