Gao Xiaosheng's Love Affair with Fish and Water
by Wang Binbin
About This Novel
The so-called "fish-water love" here refers to Gao Xiaosheng's feelings for fish and water. Gao Xiaosheng's hometown is Wujin, Changzhou, Jiangsu. This is a typical water town. Rivers crisscross the rivers. Gao Xiaosheng has been obsessed with water and fish since childhood. He has extraordinary feelings for the water in his hometown and the fish in the water. Among new literature writers, Shen Congwen has long been praised for his descriptions of water. Wang Zengqi, who also grew up in a water town, has unique and exquisite expressions of water in his works. And Gao Xiaosheng's performance with water is definitely not inferior to anyone else's. As for writing about fish, among Chinese writers, I have not seen anyone comparable to Gao Xiaosheng. It can be said that Gao Xiaosheng is one of the Chinese writers who writes best about water, but he is also the Chinese writer who writes best about fish. There is no "one". Gao Xiaosheng's essay "The Place I'm Most Familiar with" has introduced his hometown.
