The epidemic has pressed the "pause button" on the fast-paced life, and perhaps when everything "slows down", it has also opened an opportunity for people to simplify their lives, organize themselves, and return to their original. More than two hundred years ago, Thoreau went to the shores of Walden Lake and wrote "Walden Lake" to try to live a completely different life, which also triggered more people's interest in ecological writing and natural writing.
How to broaden the narrative of the relationship between man and nature? Following "The Children of Bayankara Mountain", Yang Zhijun's other ecological literature masterpiece "Tashi Delek of Sanjiangyuan" was recently published, focusing on the wildlife protection of Sanjiangyuan and telling the story of three generations of Han boy Xiaohai's family contributing youth and life to local ecological protection.
According to industry evaluation, the works contain connotations such as ecological civilization construction, family style inheritance, and protection of green waters and green mountains, and through vivid and informative descriptions of the geological landforms and wild animals in the Sanjiangyuan area, they show the grand geographical customs and profound cultural appearance, and are a song of the Three Rivers Source that praises animals, nature and life. Wu Shulin, chairman of the Publishers Association of China, believes that the works reflect the pursuit and deeds of Chinese publishers to build a community with a shared future for mankind. Critic Gao Hongbo commented that the work "reaches the commanding heights of life in searching", so that the real adult world and the fantasy child world are intertwined, and more than a dozen animal images are extremely rich, with the help of poetic description, showing legendary color, which is very rare in general animal novels.
The author combines ecological literature full of sense of distress with children's literature full of imagination and childlike fun, so that the realistic ecological literature can bloom with an idealistic spark. Hai Fei, a senior publisher and writer, commented that his works are like a stream of living water from the source of the three rivers, which injects vitality into the current literature. Critic Dean Li Donghua commented that this heavy work "expands a broad aesthetic space for children's literature writing".
Professor Cui Xinping of Taiyuan Normal University summarizes the works with three meanings: the "healing" meaning of creating joy with a child's heart and diluting the tragic reality; the confirmation of the "original heart" comes from the game and sublimation of the small self and the big love; from the improvement of the ecological environment of Sanjiangyuan, the subtle inheritance power of ecological protection is transmitted. In the view of Li Chaoquan, deputy director of the Innovation and Research Department of the China Writers Association, the works express the theme of ecological harmony and the awareness of the community of life, which is inspiring. Professor Zhang Li, a professor at Beijing Normal University, commented that the work is full of healing effects and leads people upwards.
The poetic spirit is the aesthetic pursuit of Yang Zhijun's works as always, and the works have obvious regional colors and lyrical meanings of epic temperament. Sanjiangyuan is the place where he has lived for decades, and to write the story of Sanjiangyuan is to write his own story. There the landscape is magnificent and tall, but the relationship between people is delicate and soft, everyone says "Tashi Delek", offering each other a white Hada, and the narrative is closely connected with the land in which it is rooted, which is part of the purity and green of the snowy mountains and grasslands.
