Dreamless Reunion in Flowering Period
About This Novel
Wu Siya wanders around the corners of the city and at dusk. His "scavenging" is not only survival, but also resistance to "forgetting". By chance, he touched an old abandoned music box and accidentally "saw" a memory that was not his own: the smiling face and broken cries of a little girl in the candlelight of her birthday. This strange ability has since awakened, and the discarded objects have become the carrier of memory. He picked up a discarded teddy bear and felt the despair of an unemployed father and his deep love for his daughter; he picked up a faded hairpin and witnessed a teenage relationship that was forced to separate due to illness; he picked up a torn IOU and glimpsed the bitterness of two friends who turned against each other over money. These memory fragments, like scattered puzzle pieces, reflect the folds and shadows behind the bustling curtain of the city - material embarrassment, emotional alienation, the fall of dreams, and the impermanence of life and death. While picking up, Wu Siya passively became a "container" for countless joys and sorrows. He is not a savior, he can only treat these memories with silent respect, and sometimes feels heavy because of his inability to change
