A Book to Understand the Siege
by Qu Xin
About This Novel
This book is based on Qian Zhongshu's classic novel and deconstructs the eternal proposition of "fortress under siege" layer by layer. From Fang Hongjian's four emotional entanglements, it reveals the power game of modern intimate relationships, to the cultural inferiority and cross-civilizational division reflected in Clayton's diploma; from the ironic aesthetics revealed by 731 exquisite metaphors, to the self-perception dilemma reflected in the marriage dilemma; and finally extends to the survival revelation of contemporary involution society - academic anxiety, 996 in the workplace, algorithm siege and other realistic mirrors, which form a cross-century resonance with the spiritual dilemma of intellectuals in the Republic of China. This book is not only an in-depth decoding of the text of "Fortress Besieged", but also a prism that shines a light on the spiritual dilemma of modern people. When analyzing the classic paradox of "people in the city want to go out, people outside the city want to come in", it reveals the philosophical possibility of breaking out of the siege dilemma: Only when we reconstruct the perception of time in the digital siege and cultivate subject consciousness in cultural blending can we break the linear fatalism and cultivate the poetic glimmer in the absurd existence. The whole book uses literary criticism as a boat, carrying readers between the texture of the text and the symptoms of the times, completing a deep dialogue from classic interpretation to life enlightenment.
