The love and hatred between Baorun, Yagyu and the little fairy, starting from natural love and ending with tragedy, is the main story line of "The Yellow Bird". What is sudden and paradoxical is the dangerous relationship between these three teenagers, and the impermanence of youth. A rape case with a pungent smell of hormones shudders to sing the history of that era, and also deduces the endless abyss of sin that lingers on Toon Tree Street. In this novel, Su Tong calmly narrates the confusion, fragility and constriction of life in an era with gentleness, calmness and restrained patience. He accurately analyzed and fluently described the social chaos, individual dilemmas, and the characteristics and absurdities of national mental disorder during the transition period. When his unique juvenile style of writing is implanted into the psychological perspectives of different characters and reveals the core of life, it also completes the typical image of Baorun, a completely unlucky guy in the literary gallery of the new era. The metaphor in the title of "The Yellow Bird" echoes many metaphors and symbols in the text. The book teaches forbearance and is full of unique details. Whether it is the stubbornness and decline of family life, the ignorant youthful form and abnormality, and the awkwardness and entanglement of the cramped reality, Su Tong uses poetic inspiration to restore all living beings in a noisy era to a vivid, full, balanced and rigorous way.

This is a unique novel. "I am not a human being" is not a slap in the face, but an excuse for being confused and tired of the adult life in front of me, and looking for an excuse for my embarrassing identity. In other words, it is a hypothesis. Assuming that "I am not a human being", I have become a pet dog, a tiger, a horse, a panda, a saint, a mouse, a nineteenth-century foreigner, a peacock, a child, a fish, a fairy, a future person... Twelve possible "transformations" constitute this mediocre version of "The Metamorphosis". With the help of the "transformed" identity and perspective, the adult world is completely analyzed and interpreted. The twelve escapes from the adult world actually become the twelve returns to the adult world: acceptance with resistance and integration with isolation. Both depicting the various aspects of the world and writing about human nature, the "transformation" perspective of this book has a lot of new ideas. Its "sense of isolation" just makes the book gain a sense of distance necessary for in-depth understanding. Therefore, in addition to the new ideas, it also contains many unique feelings and often makes understanding discoveries.

There is never enough talk about marriage. Recently, when I read "How Marriage is Made" by Zhiren Ren, I found that the author put forward a brand-new concept of marriage, which is to reshape marriage. The mediocre person puts forward a bold proposition in the novel: People's first marriages are all blind! It is far from our real needs in marriage, so it is not ungrateful to find a partner in marriage.

Jianghu is a deformation of a certain part of society. It belongs to society but is different from society. The movie "Young and Dangerous" uses this sentence to explain Jianghu - Jianghu is an underground society with its own set of order and rules.
