Xiao Hong's Prose Collection: I Have a Time of Youth
by Xiao Hong
About This Novel
Some people describe Xiao Hong as saying that she is not a firework, but she is lonelier than a firework; she is not a begonia, but she is more heartbroken than a begonia flower. Xiao Hong, this northeastern woman, is like a begonia flower growing in the ice and snow. She is aloof and ice-white, a touch of sad and bright red in the scattered and chaotic 1930s. Lying listening to the sound of the waves, how did she endure this long and lonely life in her short life? From her words, you may be able to find scattered answers. The book basically covers all of Xiao Hong's prose. Among them, "Shangshi Street" is equivalent to her diary when she and Xiao Jun lived together, and the letter "To Xiao Jun" reveals Xiao Hong's emotions when she was passionately in love. There are also essays in which she describes life in her hometown and mourns her grandfather. From this book, we can see the real Xiao Hong.

This book is very good.
There were too many low points in her life, and she spent a lot of time cold and hungry. When the snow fell heavily, her lover went out to look for work, and she waited in a dilapidated small hotel. When the cry of the bread seller rang out, she didn't even have half a dime in her pocket.
Great, this book is great.
open heart
This book is actually written to Mr. Xu, and it is a sincere dialogue. Here, Xiao Hong truly reveals her inner thoughts. After she got rid of Wang Zengqi's control, Xiao Jun's appearance can be said to be a blessing or a misfortune. Xiao Hong's life can be described as miserable.
Xiao Hong is a lonelier woman than fireworks. She escaped at the age of 17, and her youth has been wandering on the road since then. Her writing contains the unique delicacy and gentleness of women, but at the lowest point, there is an unknown strength in her character.
This book contains several short stories by Xiao Hong, the style is somewhere between novels and essays. She uses the language of prose to describe the joys, sorrows and joys she has experienced in life. You can read it as a prose novel.
Secret and great
The description is very detailed, I like it
Take a look at her "The Legend of Hulan River". She is so miserable!
Xiao Hong, my eternal literary goddess
I have read "The Field of Life and Death" and "The Legend of the Hulan River" many times. The first time I came into contact with her was "Grandfather's Garden" in the primary school textbook. When I was still a primary school student, I was deeply attracted by Xiao Hong's writing. In the straightforward narrative, the story is told calmly without too many modifications, but it touches people's hearts directly.
