A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Dead City
About This Novel
This book is the first collection of Zhang Xiaozhou's cultural commentary essays over the years. García Márquez has repeatedly explained that the so-called "magic realism" is either fabricated or living reality. Similarly, when we use words like time travel, fantasy, and tomb robbing to describe reality, it is not false at all. We are talking about the reality of today's China. The Tower of London outside Suzhou City, Iijima Ai in Liulichang. Shaolin piano, patriotic rice dumplings, turtle soup for the soul. With a love in hand, a generation went there to act coquettishly with each other. Faith is flying in the void, the golden mountain is confronting the sacred mountain, and everything turns away from the suffering so peacefully. The times are like silicone swelling in everyone's chest, making it impossible for you to grasp them with one hand. How to love? I saw your evil smile. An absurd book about prosperous China, a sketchbook of contemporary Chinese society and cultural landscape.
