    The novel *Xie Junxing* is another masterpiece of fantasy epic following Mo Yan's *Big Breasts and Wide Hips*. It opens with an absurd setting in the late Tang Dynasty. While lacking Mo Yan's experience and writing style, it presents the characters of the three realms—immortals, humans, and demons—from the perspective of ordinary working people, revealing each character's inner monologue rather than a rigid good-versus-evil narrative. It truly interprets the line between right and wrong as simply a matter of perspective, making each character a significant figure in the annals of history.

    Yes, read these two. The first is *A Guide to Urban Wandering*, a purely realistic and morally sound book. People today don't realize the devastation a patriarchal family can inflict on a girl. The protagonist discovers she's been sold and bravely escapes her family, struggling to survive by scavenging and sleeping in underground parking garages and public restrooms. She encounters various people from the lower classes, experiencing warmth and mutual support. The kindness of strangers provides immense help, and the resilient protagonist repays those who helped her through her own efforts. The character development is clear, with well-defined arcs. The protagonist initially suffers from low self-esteem, weakness, and a strong sense of unworthiness, but later becomes capable, spirited, and sunny, gaining friendship, love, and family along the way. Reading this book is like participating in a girl's entire inspiring youth; it's well worth reading. The second book is *A Middle-Aged City Survival Diary*. A ten-year housewife is betrayed by her husband, who disappears, leaving her burdened with debt. She struggles to raise her two young daughters, desperately trying to get her life back on track.
