Jiulu Intersection
About This Novel
From the spring and summer of 2021 to the summer of 2022, media professionals and writers Yi Xianfeng and Yang Ying spent more than a year starting from the intersection of Changle Road and Xiangyang North Road in Shanghai, walking one block each from east to west, north to south, and using this "Tian Zi Ge Universe" as the scope of block field writing - 6 roads, 9 intersections, 111 occupations, 580 stores, and 62 people. Sister Ying's highway store, Xiao Li's fruit shop, Aunt Fan's clothing store, Gao Song's Weimin Door and Window Shop, Xiao Hu's tavern... Shanghai's social network, business ecology, urban logic, and cultural texture are unfolded in sequence in the writings of the two authors. Stories in the city always come together and disperse. Compared with the sadness of separation, this book is more concerned with the stories of people from all over the world meeting and gathering here. All observations and analyzes point to the following question - what is the meaning of civilization to the city and ordinary people?
