Looking Back at Tan Hualin
About This Novel
Several articles in this book talk about the literary clubs and publications run by the students themselves. Among them, "Shihua" and "Peach" left a particularly deep impression on everyone. It is said that at that time, these self-generated student "fan publications" in the Chinese Department once "sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain." Weren't literary greats like Lin Ruji and Feng Zhi just college students in their early twenties when they founded the Asakusa Society and later joined the Shen Zhong Society? However, a cold north wind blew, and publications such as "Shihua" and "Bitao" and the literary club collapsed and died. Some students who wrote articles with "unhealthy thoughts and emotions" were ordered to drop out of school. Fortunately, the gardeners who cultivated those fan publications, including Fu Shengwenjun, who dropped out of school, were admitted to the earliest batch of graduate students at the intersection of the 1970s and 1980s, and were able to realize their ambitions and showcase their talents.
