The book "Lily" is a novella the size of a palm. The author is Dean from Shanxi, who studied in France and has published many novels.
At first, I thought it was a book for children, but after reading it, I felt that the novel could be made into a movie.
The protagonist of the story, Lily, is a D, and she tells the story of her growing up.
When Lily was just 3 days old, her mother was hunted by hunters, who took her back to her house and raised her with a hunting dog, Gantt.
Because the memory of the previous one is too vague, Lily, the lioness does not have much wildness, and meekly begins to be humanized.
Living between the grasslands and the mountains, the hunter's house is on the mountainside.
Lily loves to run, and is as fast as a leopard when chasing prey on the plains. Sometimes they would hunt in the mountains, so that Lily would not be able to run and would not be interested in hunting.
After raising Lily for four years, the hunter decided that Lily was mature enough, so he planned to return her to the plains to find other lions, preferably to become mothers as well.
So, the hunter really did it, and luckily, Lily did meet a male lion, Ah Lang.
However, Lily has fallen in love with the hunter and does not want to leave. As a result, the hunter locked Lily out, and during the sacrifice, Lily did not see the hunter again, thinking that he was dead, so Lily had to leave with Ah Lang.
One day, Aaron suddenly disappeared, and Lily couldn't find it everywhere, and later the hunter and Gantt found Lily, who was blind at this time. The hunter tells Lily that she is about to become a mother.
In this way, after Lily lost Aaron, she returned to the hunter's hut again.
One day when the circus came to perform, Lily found that Ah Lang was being held there. That day, Aaron wants to rebel and leave, and Lily wants to rescue it.
However, after a panic, the hunter killed Ah Lang, how could a blind man be so accurate from such a distance?
The hunter said that it was Lily who told him the exact location of Alang.
Lily didn't know what she had done wrong, she only knew that her dependence was gone, and her child's father was gone.
Because the hunter saved the beautiful woman who was performing with Ah Lang, the hunter became a hero, and the hunter proposed to the beauty, and the hero matched the beauty, and everyone cheered, but Lily did not participate in the carnival.
On the day of the hunter's wedding, Lily's child Cinnabar was born, and the name was the same as Lily's, which was given by the hunter.
Because Lily went to rescue Ah Lang at that time and hit her stomach halfway, Cinnabar was born with a lame leg. However, Cinnabar is a lively and optimistic girl by nature, and she is very likable to everyone.
Compared to Lily, cinnabar is more humane and lacks wildness.
Lily wanted to tell it about her own experience and the stories of her ancestors, but seeing that Cinnabar was running unsteadily, she knew that Cinnabar couldn't be as wild as she was on the plains.
Later, the hunters decided to arrange Cinnabar to live in the zoo, and soon a zoologist arrived, and after getting acquainted with Cinnabar, he took it away, as well as the beautiful woman rescued by the hunter, his wife.
They never came back.
Gantt, the hound, is old, and the hunter is still blind, and Lily, who had planned to take Cinnabar to the plains when he grows up, and leave here forever, has no motivation to leave.
It still loves hunters, as Gantt once said, it can't do without hunters, and hunters can't live without it, and now Gantt has replaced it with Lily.
It's a story of reunion and parting.
It is also a story about control and domestication.
Freedom seems to be in your own hands at all times, but it is not under your control.
Just as Lily had many chances to leave, but it still stayed, there was a lot of helplessness and sadness.
As beasts, they are forgetful, because in this way they can survive better, but Lily is a lion with a good memory, because she has too many memories, so she has a bondage.
Obviously, the plain is there, and the homeland is there, but why, it doesn't seem to belong to you?
This is a question worth pondering.
As mentioned at the beginning of the book, this is a book for all Leo girls in the world, boys who fall in love with Leo girls, and all children who love lions.
Lily's personality, just like the Leo girl, is independent, confident, open-minded, generous, and has a strong leadership temperament and desire to control. However, because he is too self-centered and romantic, he is also prone to being hurt by his beloved emotionally.
