About This Novel
The novella "Love Poems of 1987" written by Xing Qingjie is about the love, resentment, entanglements and life experiences between "I", Xi Xiaojuan and Mai Hongyue. It comprehensively and fully completes the concentrated display of the emotions, psychology and destiny of young people in the 1980s. "1987" Is a specific year when a love story takes place, and "love poetry" is a universally popular romantic way of expressing love in that era, leading us into the passionate years of material poverty but spiritual wealth. The gap between urban and rural areas is not only reflected in all aspects of material life, but also in emotions, that is, in the inside and outside of psychological activities. Xi Xiaojuan's youthful and fashionable temperament inspired "me" to fall in love with her like a saint, while Mai Hongyue tempted "me" to surrender to her with her prominent family and abundant material resources. The former is the object of spiritual conversion, and the latter is the medium of material attachment. Their temptation to "I", a rural person, is also real. However, "I" is placed in such an era background, and the choices of fate for "I" are actually few and very narrow.
