About This Novel

Marking the soul vision of the "post-70s" generation, even if they hit a wall and break, they must be an "egg" who bravely confronts the inherent reality. This is a new self-selected collection of prose essays by Lu Xun Literature Award winner Xu Zechen. "Starting from an Egg" is a new self-selected collection of prose essays by Xu Zechen, a powerful writer born in the 1970s and winner of the Lu Xun Literature Award and the Lao She Literature Award. The author personally selected 38 classic prose essays from his 22-year writing career, covering life growth, urban and rural stories, hometown feelings, Chinese and foreign literary reviews, prefaces and postscripts, and many other articles. They are divided into two volumes. The text is rich in texture, bright and clear, and the emotions are sincere but not overwhelming. This book is a collection of masterpieces selected from the author's prose essays. The author has collected a series of prose classics published successively into one volume, so that more readers can understand the author's life course and spiritual world. The focus of the first volume is to find the mental journey and innocence of the generation born in the 1970s when they face China's earth-shaking changes. The second volume is mainly based on what I saw and heard in foreign countries and my thoughts after reading Western literature and biographies. Reading experiences and book reviews from Marquez to Calvino, from Faulkner to Kafka are also included. The entire collection of essays reflects the author's spiritual casting history from a literary youth to a well-known writer.
