Occasionally, Intense Loneliness is Needed

About This Novel

This book is a book that interprets loneliness from the perspective of psychology and sociology. The author Jin Jueyun resigned from his job as a university professor at the age of 50 and went to Japan to study painting alone. When he arrived in Japan, he discovered that dying alone was a popular phenomenon in this country. Many people separated from their family and friends, lived alone, grew old alone, and welcomed death alone. They were not discovered until a long time after their death. How do these people lose their interpersonal relationships step by step? How did you lose your desire for social interaction little by little? This book includes the author's thoughts on life and art during his four years of studying abroad in Japan. During these four years, he first deeply experienced loneliness, being alone in a foreign country, but he also gradually discovered the benefits of complete loneliness: he obtained an art degree, published four books, wrote columns in newspapers, drew illustrations, and translated Japanese books. The publication of this book is also the culmination of his four years of loneliness. So he began to use artistic thinking to dialectically view loneliness, and derived a series of insights, involving the relationship between husband and wife, father-son relationship, mid-life crisis, spiritual emptiness after retirement, lifelong learning, self-examination and other aspects. The book also includes many artistic paintings and photographs created by the author himself.
