I really loved this article. Of all the stories in "The Book Thief," my favorites are "The Story of Throwing Oneself into the Sea" and the two ballet-themed stories. The new version incorporates feminist concepts, giving the whole story a more heroic feel. The book thief is also a heroic woman, isn't she? The ending was fantastic!
As the author says, Chen Wenqing's resurrection is truly inappropriate, and Nangong Qin's lament in the woods is also quite sentimental. If you ask me, since the Demonic Sect has already shown its true colors, it should first remain hidden and then reveal itself to expose the Nangong family, stirring up chaos and causing countless deaths and injuries. (The three women then threw themselves into the small boat.)
A Chinese classical version of "Thelma & Louise"
I read the whole thing in one go, and I was thrilled and thoroughly entertained. It reminded me of a movie from many years ago called "Thelma & Louise".
Many years ago, I stumbled upon your novel in a magazine and have loved it ever since. Years later, rereading your words still moves me deeply. I look forward to more of your books.
Applaud! I'm already your fan!
Remember? There are as many Hamlets as there are readers… Everyone will have their own interpretation of the story, and whether it sparks discussion, controversy, or misunderstanding, it always proves that the story was created successfully. Continue searching for stories about book theft. Also, are you no longer able to write? These stories seem to be works from a few years ago.
Good story. Actually, if this was truly the era, that kind of world, then women's status was naturally like this. Throughout thousands of years of history, wasn't it always the case that men had multiple wives and concubines, with the husband as the head of the household? Putting aside the so-called gender discrimination, the story itself is very engaging, full of passion, energy, and helplessness, with a tight plot, vivid characters, and avoids being didactic. In short, it's great!
I'm about to become a fan of the book-stealing anime. I'll read it first...
After reading "The Story of Throwing Oneself into the Sea" and then the two essays on feminism written by the author of "The Story of Throwing Oneself into the Sea," I gained a lot. My concern for women's thoughts, character, situation, and fate began when I was a few years old, but it had always remained at the emotional level.
