He met 11 good buddies with different personalities in the same dormitory, and gained sweet campus love. But fate played a huge joke on him, making his life destined to be different from ordinary people. The language of the work is smooth and vivid, and the bold and lively northeastern dialect is skillfully blended into modern Chinese, which is both solemn and humorous. It is also interspersed with literary allusions, poems, etc., Which not only fits the identity of the characters and the setting of the story, but also shows the author's solid literary skills.
Reader comments
It is difficult to see people who have gone through hardships but are pure in heart in real life. These days, I have watched a lot of cool articles and dramas, as if good results will definitely come after the hardships. Read this book and you will know that it is not suffering that brings good results, but you, your living and working hard, that brings good results.
I admire Lao Wu. If real life is full of suffering for you, you can read Lao Wu's story. I am not trying to beautify the suffering. I just hope that Lao Wu's story can give you some comfort.
Stranger, I wish you happiness.
The characters are vivid, the plot is compact, and the writing is smooth. It is a very good work. But as a person who hides in the virtual world, it is a bit uncomfortable to see such a realistic novel, because in reality, there are too many people like Qin Zhigao and President Wang, and they have misled too many people like Lao Wu, so in the second half, I was a little bit evasive and didn't want to continue.
I was so moved that I no longer dared to read or listen to the latter part, lamenting the twists and turns of Lao Wu's life.
A good book, only such works can be called literature! Nowadays, there are so many cool articles, so we really need excellent works like Lao Wu!
I finished reading it at 11 o'clock in the evening, and I felt very stuck in my heart. Lao Wu, who was in his prime and had a bright future, had gone through a tortuous life path. It must be his character. It's a pity and regret. After going through this kind of thing, I wish I could feel relieved!
It is a very touching novel. I was moved by the friendship between Lao Wu and his classmates, and also by the innocent love between him and the princess. This work describes a tragedy caused by a talented young man under the background of the times. Fortunately, the ending is good. ZThis is a good article. It is now 1:23 in the morning, and I am lying in bed crying.
The book "Lao Wu" made me feel the ups and downs of life and the impermanence of fate. The story of Lao Wu reminded me of my own experience in high school. Although it was not that dramatic, there were still setbacks and losses. The text in the book is very vivid, especially the use of Northeastern dialect, which makes people feel very friendly. I feel that this book not only tells a person's story, but also makes me think more about life.
The story of Lao Wu reminds me of the protagonist Du Xiangdong and his two prisoners in Shi Yifeng's "Born by Life". They are very similar in some places! They have a lot in common. They are all "stupid" persistence, and they are all smart fools! Teacher Xie is a talented person who lives both in water and in arts and sciences! Take a look at the names of his other works and you will understand!
There are neither gorgeous words nor disgusting eroticism, but it can be told in plain language, portraying the character of "Lao Wu" vividly, making people lament the fate of the people! The concentration of love, the pure friendship between teachers and students, the shining brilliance of humanity... This is the charm of traditional pure literature! The author has profound writing skills, and I would like to dedicate my first five stars on Tomato Reading to show my admiration [Like]
The first part was interesting to read, especially the scene where he hid naked in the dormitory next door but was watched naked by his classmates. It was very funny. At first, I thought it was just an interesting youth novel, but when reading the second half of The Misfortune, it made people feel that Lao Wu was like the honest man in Yu Hua's "Brothers". He was knocked down time and time again, but he stood up again and again. This is also the attitude of life.
This is the first time I write a book review recommendation. It is not a pleasant article, but it makes people burst into tears while reading it. A person's life is made up of many small events that are superimposed together, but they affect a person's life. The first and second half of the chapter tell the story of Lao Wu from the perspective of his roommate and his wife respectively. Character determines destiny, and destiny affects one's life.
I graduated from Shenyang Electric Power College in 1992, so I think I am destined to be the author. The description of school life is very reminiscent of that time. Personally, I feel that the pace of the text at the end is a bit too fast. The happy ending is beautiful but unrealistic and too idealistic.
Great book, some chapters brought tears to my eyes
. This is a book of suffering! The story of a modern village guard! But it goes beyond the scope of the village guards! But the nature is the same. In their eyes, the world is kind and beautiful. They all choose to forget the suffering and hardships others have given them! ! ! And in his heart, he will always remember the half-filled bottle of water that others handed him - this is the kindness others showed him when he was thirsty! ? ?
The first paragraph was a relaxing and enjoyable read, but I only had one question: why did he leave without saying goodbye. Reading the latter part made me feel sad. Lao Wu's character is inseparable from the shadow left by his boyhood. He works steadily but is struggling with his energy. He lives a depressed life. From his youth to middle age, meeting Keqin's classmates, friends, and family members is a great happiness!
The writing is excellent and the content is realistic. This is literature!
The first half of the book was mediocre, but I almost cried while reading it at the end.

It has flesh and blood, responsibility, affection, justice and strength!
The writing is unpretentious and the ideas are clear and easy to understand.
Close to life, the characters are realistically described, and the storyline is very attractive. Highly recommended! ! ! !
The writing is not bad, the college atmosphere is vivid, I like it
Lao Wu is a person with capital letters. A man of love and justice!
There was crying, laughter and tears, and it was heart-wrenching to read.
The writing is smooth, the narrative of real life, and the emotions are delicate. A rare good book. Well worth reading.
Very good, realistic portrayal, even the reality is better than the story in the book
