About This Novel
"The Wall" is combined with three short stories "The Bedroom", "Aerostratus", "Secrets of the Boudoir" and a novella "The Childhood of a Business Owner" to form a collection of short stories and short stories. It tells the story of three International Brigade members who were sentenced to be shot by the enemy during the Spanish Civil War while waiting all night. One of them is frightened to the point of going crazy, the other is barely holding on, and the protagonist "I" has a very complicated mood: I hate the various abnormalities of my comrades, but I can't resolve the melancholy in my heart. During the countdown to life, he truly realized the preciousness of life through intermittent memories, and regretted endlessly for squandering his youth and thinking that he could live forever. The five works put forward a basic proposition of existentialism: people are free, and their destiny depends on their own choices.
