Dark and Dark
by Huang Jinshu
About This Novel
"Dark Darkness" is a collection of Huang Jinshu's two early short story collections. The story mostly takes place in the small town of Jiaolin in Southeast Asia: Chinese immigrants to Southeast Asia are in an environment surrounded by wild beasts, racial oppression, colonial aggression, and identity anxiety, and face various forms of separation, disappearance, and death. Huang Jinshu actively uses meta-fiction (meta-fiction), satire, collage and other techniques to dialogue with the historical malaise, and presents Malaysian Chinese literature and the situation of Malaysian Chinese in a "possessed" way. Behind each piece of black text is the author's repair and reconstruction of the missing ethnic memory, as well as his introspection and thinking about the collective destiny of the Nanyang Chinese.
