Baby Talk by the Lake: a Collection of Short Stories and Essays by Wang Tongzhao
About This Novel
This book includes Wang Tongzhao's short stories and prose works such as "Children's Talk by the Lake", "A Line of Life and Death" and "The Knife's Hilt". Wang Tongzhao's creation began by exploring life issues. His early works expressed the thoughts of "beauty" and "love" and described the depression of young men and women. His writing style was fresh and full of subjective lyricism. In his early novel creation, Wang Tongzhao showed his artistic ability to experience and express his own and the characters' emotions and aspirations, and gave his characters a special color with introspective "contemplation", which was mixed with the vanity of fantasy and the heaviness of writing. "Children's Talk by the Lake" reveals signs of a transition to a new direction in Wang Tongzhao's novel creation. The description of a loner's dream-seeking life gave way to a deep concern and deep sympathy for the lower-class workers. The beautiful children's voice of the past is now covered up by the bitter "children's talk", and the eulogy of pure childlike innocence truly has a practical connotation.
