Xiao Jun's "Village in August" is one of the volumes of the "Historical Materials and Research Series on Northeastern Exile Literature" edited by Zhang Fugui. "Historical Materials and Research Series on Northeastern Exile Literature" is China's first large-scale book that comprehensively and systematically organizes the Northeastern exile literature and research results in modern China. It is divided into research volumes, historical materials volumes, and works volumes, with a total of 36 volumes. In addition to the work of the same name, "August Countryside" also includes early works such as the short stories "Peach Colored Thread", "The Orphan" and "The Madman". These works were mainly created in the 1930s and concentrated on the anti-Japanese spirit of the Northeast people. "August Village" describes the story of an anti-Japanese guerrilla group, the Ninth Detachment of the Chinese People's Revolutionary Army, fighting against the Japanese puppet troops and landlord armed forces during the transfer process. Lu Xun once wrote in the preface of "August Village" that it "shows one and all of China, its present and future, its dead end and its way out".
Reader comments
Overall, this is a highly recommended adult book.
His advantages lie in his exquisite details, special subject matter, and extremely early writing time. Thanks to the author and the prototype character's many years of military training, the military details in this book are extremely rigorous. Many bloody details and behavioral habits are vividly displayed on the page in just a few strokes, which greatly makes up for the obstacles caused by the author's skills and calligraphy habits.
His shortcomings lie in the generation gap between early vernacular writing and today's reading generation (this is the main reason for giving this book four stars), the sense of disillusionment caused by the contrast between the good and bad anti-Japanese teams and the traditional image of greatness and glory (based on this, I will rate him as an adult reading book. This detail is a bonus for history buffs, but it is not convenient to recommend as a patriotic education book), as well as some of the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders (it makes people hard-core).
This book truly shows the anti-Japanese spirit of the Northeast people, with distinctive characters, such as the bravery and determination of the protagonist Liang Xing and the calmness and calmness of Li Sandi. I like the description of the battle in the book. It is exciting and exciting, and it makes me feel the hardship of that era. This book is worth reading and can make us cherish our current peaceful life more.
