Diana, the Lonely Huntress

About This Novel
This book is a long biography of Fuentes' self-anatomy in his later years. With rich memory fragments and stream-of-consciousness confessions, he revealed a true personal life history, and used literature to resurrect the one he loved - Diana, who was named after the moon goddess. She is a Hollywood movie star who came out of the American countryside. She is the Joan of Arc on the screen. She is an idealist who believes in the equal rights movement and liberalism. She is also a victim of the American counterintelligence program in the 1960s. She finally died alone... In Fuentes' writing, her broken body is also the ruins of the times. A personal narrative ultimately reflects a perspective on the entire era and a critical reflection on modernization.
