🌻 "Drought Ray"
📝 Author: Zhu Xiyong
🌱 Zhu Xining was called a true pioneer by Mo Yan, "Drought" is a great work recommended by Mo Yan countless times, famous for a long time, read it this month, shocked, I wanted to write a book review, but after reading Mo Yan's book review, I didn't have the courage to write a book review again, and directly put Mo Yan's book review as follows:
.
🌴 "The reason why "Drought Ray" can be like a fine wine stored in the cellar, lasting and fragrant, is that the characters created in the novel almost vividly express their distinct personalities. That Elder Jin, who pinned on all Mr. Zhu's ideals, the murderous bandit leader Tang Tieface, the brave, courageous and insightful Tong Qiuxiang, the juggling class leader Tong Lao Dad who was poor but still tenaciously maintained his dignity, and even secondary characters such as Second Master Pi in the juggling team and Grandpa Lin and Qiang Lao Song in the oil mill were also lifelike and ready to come out.
.
🍀 From the perspective of the ability to shape characters, "Drought Dragon" is another masterpiece that inherits the valuable tradition of white painting in classical Chinese novels. The words of the characters are heard as if they were people. Such skills are not possessed by the so-called "avant-garde" writers. Such skills are based on life experience that has experienced many vicissitudes, on the rich possession of Shengqing, and on the basis of extreme familiarity with the characters written.
.
🦄 "Drought Shark" also shows Mr. Zhu's strong, full, and rich imagery like a torrential waterfall. I can probably imagine the shock that Mr. Zhu caused in Taiwan's literary scene in the sixties of the last century with such language. His language was like a wall of rubble, covered with sharp edges. His language echoed like smooth pebbles thrown onto copper discs. Such a language needs to run and read, and such a language will sink to the bottom when thrown into the water. Mr. Zhu makes good use of metaphors, and they are his original metaphors, which cannot be repeated by others. He was whimsical and saw that all things had a spirit. As García Márquez said, "All things have life, the question is how to arouse their spirituality." ”
.
🌷 The title of the book is "Drought Ray", and I specially went to understand that the drought is a monster that causes drought in ancient Chinese myths and legends. Originally the daughter of the emperor, in the northern superstition, if people die unjustly, the corpse will turn into a drought, bringing drought, so the end of the novel opens a coffin to fight the drought.
