2014 Chinese Novella Annual Selection
About This Novel
One of the Flower City annual selections. Nine novellas published in 2014 were selected, all of which were outstanding works by writers born in the 1970s who were more influential that year. Writers use their keen sensory systems to feel the world and at the same time record the true nature of life. While continuing the lyric tradition, these works make literature more humane and life-like. "The Hanging Coffin" uses popular and simple language to give flesh and blood to the characters, allowing us to understand the lifestyle and values and beliefs with local characteristics. This is a kind of thinking that is difficult for the world to understand today: stick to the "cliff" to continue the bloodline, obey the laws of nature, and always love this barren and difficult "home". It is precisely because of generations of perseverance without regrets that we have a man who is as strong as a "cliff", we have a man's pride and independence, and we have a tenacious and passionate life supported by his pride.
