Life is inherently full of suffering, and through the writer's description of suffering, he reflects on and seeks to escape

The mission of the writer is to go beyond the real and describe our real life. In our real life, there is not only a bright side, but also an extremely heavy suffering side, and the writing of suffering must also evoke the softest part of our hearts, so that we can see these sufferings, think about these sufferings, and avoid the recurrence of suffering in real life.

Pei Hongzheng, a young writer, was once a freelance writer living at the bottom of society, believing that his life will inevitably have some painful past, so that his literature presents a cold hard core, allowing him to describe the most tragic stories in life with a gloomy tone, and nakedly peel open the scars in our real society to present to readers, so that we can feel the pain in this kind of reading, experience the struggle, and seek relief from the heart.

This "This World, Other Nights" is Pei Hongzheng's first collection of short stories, which includes five novels. The five novels are the five total sufferings that the author focuses on in our society, namely bullying, madness, domestic violence, mutation, and attack. These stories make us read very real, and they are painful, as if they were really happening to us, and we have to face them head-on, and we can't escape them.

For example, the first novel, "Once Upon a Drowning Teenager", is a story about school bullying. In reality, we can also see a lot of real bullying incidents on the Internet, which makes us wonder why the bullied person suffers so much. Why is their suffering not seen by the adult world?

In the novel, the author presents us with the pain and helplessness of the bullied teenager from the perspective of a child, and finally escapes by ending his own life. From the novel, we see that their collapsed world did not suddenly fall into the abyss, they were driven to a dead end step by step, but in this long process, the pain they endured was artificially ignored. And how can such a story not make our hearts ache when it is read?

Another example is the novel "An Artist's Story", in which the author describes the growth of a controversial artist. In the area of ignorance, anything that is beyond conventional perception is no, it is considered evil, and there are all kinds of suspicions.

And in this novel, the artist is the one who is under suspicion. First of all, I think that he is not doing his job properly when he paints, and he is just idle. Of course, we can understand this view, after all, for people in reality, survival is the first priority.

But in the face of other people's lives, there are also some people who will spare no effort to carry others with all kinds of evil. So the climax of this story is that the artist, in the process of learning nude sketching, was boycotted by everyone because he was looking for a prostitute as a model, and was brutally destroyed, and even injured others and burned all his paintings. And this process is bound to be painful and hopeless. Of course, in the end we already know that the painter has become famous, but he has also escaped from this place that has caused him pain.
