About This Novel
This book mainly collects dozens of prose works written by the author in different periods, as well as a small number of novels and critical works. Judging from the subject matter and content, the prose mainly recalls the author's experience of living in the countryside during his childhood and adolescence. At the same time, it also makes in-depth observations and analyzes of many phenomena and problems in rural society from the perspective of adults and scholars. It includes not only the eulogy or aftertaste of the simple and true feelings of the world, but also the thinking and prospect of how the countryside can move toward modernization, as well as the description and experience of his own study life. The novels and reviews in the collection can be regarded as two other literary landscapes besides prose. Although the novels are fictional and the reviews must be realistic, if you look carefully, you will find that these novels and reviews are closely connected with the prose in spiritual connotation, and they mainly point to the central word of the book, "country". Countryside is the spiritual background of everyone born in the countryside, and its importance to a person is not limited to itself.
