Like Migratory Birds
About This Novel
"Like a Migratory Bird" is one of Zhou Xiaofeng's masterpieces of prose, and together with her "The Singing of the Giant Whale" and "Kiss of the Fantasy Beast" are called the "They" trilogy. Zhou Xiaofeng has an innocent heart and a cold pen. She uses the imagination of a child and the profundity of an adult to create a mysterious world of words with ripples and clouds, directly touching on the world and human feelings. The ten essays in "Like Migratory Birds" cover topics such as family relationships, Alzheimer's disease, thinking about good and evil, migration and hometown. It has won awards such as Sina's Top Ten Best Books, Huadi Literary Award for Prose of the Year, and Chinese Literature Media Award. Baroque complex rhetoric, unique observation of all phenomena in the world, and profound thinking as sharp as a knife jointly mark the uniqueness of Zhou Xiaofeng's prose. These works are sincere and sharp, and are self-conscious attempts to cross-border genres. She incorporates drama elements, novel plots, poetic language and philosophical thinking into the framework of prose, leading the possibility of prose writing to a more distant space.
