About This Novel
Recalling the literary environment of the 1980s, many people will feel a sense of nostalgia. At a time when everything is flourishing, modern art is like a strong wind, making us all intoxicated by its bath. Wearing worn-out boots and still suffering from frost scars, I had a strong desire to make up for the shortcomings in my upbringing. When I returned to the city, I felt weak. I hoped to capture "modernity" in order to obtain a new mount. At that time, I was particularly concerned about form, technique, and language. Although I was working on it, I was always wondering whether these technical and conceptual things were truly modern in the sense of modernism. The era of coercion has brought us from the 1960s to the 1980s, a period of transformation and renewal. I changed from a professional herder to a professional writer. "Modern" dominated the Chinese literary world at that time.
