[The reality is a campus novel from the 1990s, no rebirth, no system, no golden fingers, pure growth + first love, secret love]
This is a warm and true youth coming-of-age novel, set in a southern provincial capital city in the 1990s, and tells the story of Yan Suo's growth trajectory from the first year of high school to the third year of high school. The novel takes "encounter" as the main line and connects multiple themes such as friendship, secret love, studies, family, and dreams. Starting from their "serious" jokes, Yan Su and his deskmate Ren Zhen accompany them through their youthful high school years; their subtle emotions with girls such as Lin Jun and Zhong Qin outline the initial concerns of teenagers; their interactions with teachers and parents reflect the unique educational atmosphere and intergenerational relationships of that era.
The language is humorous and the details are real and touching. It not only contains the marks of the times such as the Little Tigers, Beyond, debate competitions, and college entrance examination applications, but also the first serious thinking of young people about the world, themselves, and emotions. It is not only a story about first love, but also a memory book of youth shared by a generation. After reading, you will think of the person sitting next to you, the person you secretly liked, and the summer you can never go back to.
Purpose: This is not a nostalgic anecdote. What I want to write about is the unique "slow boom" of the 1990s. A steady flow of water and long accumulation may be the best way to open up love.
