Let's cherish and live a good life.

I think college students' campus life should be spent in books, roaming in the ocean of classic books. Because this is a chaotic era, mentality and reading are really important.

Yu Hua has many books that people can't understand. Today's things like smoke are actually a book that people can't understand.

Just like Alive, but today we are going to talk about Yu Hua's early works, and Alive is his later works. 1986 to 1990 are almost his early works, all short stories. It was not until 1990 that he began the glory of his novel.

Today we are going to talk about "things are like smoke". If you go to Baidu, you will find that all the people about this book are discussing what this book is. What do you mean? It shows that many readers can't understand this book, and even some professional readers are confused about it.

Personally, I think this is actually an iconic work of his dark novels. What he writes about is death, darkness and violence in life, which gives people a very heavy feeling.

The characters in this book all have symbolic images, that is to say, they don't easily express their personalities or even describe their names. In this article, his characters are only replaced by symbols, namely Arabic numerals? . I summarized a picture as follows:

At the beginning of the article, the wives of 7 and 7, who can't afford to get sick, went to tell fortune, and then heard a series of stories. The story begins at seven, with the fortune teller as the main line, and then a series of stories are launched in the continuous development of the story. It's very strange, but Yu Hua's consistent style is outstanding.

The first is the symbolization of characters, and the second is that there are some personality distortions and mental abnormalities in characters. For example, 3 is an old lady in her 60 s, but she is doing what husband and wife can do with her 17-year-old grandson. As a result, I went to a fortune teller when I was pregnant and asked if I could give birth to this grandson. The fortune teller said yes, because it can be raised.

And six. He is carrying a group of girls. At first, he laid the foundation. You won't understand until you see the back. Actually, it is. These girls are all daughters of 6, and 6 sells her own daughter. Later, she had a seventh daughter. While her father was bargaining with the businessman, her daughter heard that she would be sold soon? . So she jumped into the river and died by the river. After hearing about my daughter in the teahouse, I just sat. He didn't make waves because of his daughter's death, but because he couldn't explain to the businessman and make money by himself. This is an indifferent event and an indifferent era.

In fact, this novel is similar to "Living". However, in To Live, it really died, leaving only Fu Gui and his old cow. And "smoke" is the most ruthless here, and there is no hope at all.

The whole story is about a vicious fortune teller, whose four children died one after another, and this day is regarded as his birthday. The fifth youngest son also died, followed by a series of mental patients. On June 5438+05 every month, I went to find a girl of eleven or twelve to do something shameful.

Such a fortune teller, the people represented by these digital symbols all go to him to seek a kind of psychological comfort. What good advice can a pervert give others? So this is a sick society. That's probably the story.

But why does the author write like this? I think there are mainly the following points:

1 may be a symbolic representation, and it is safer not to point to anyone.

2. The symbol of quality can represent many people in this society. Just say that you are a tiny individual, but you can do many things. You can do good or bad. The result is that these things written by the author can't correspond to everyone. Perhaps this is life, this is death, and this is Yu Hua's consistent brushwork.

3, you have to say something, that is death, that is social darkness.

Of course, the whole article is rather depressing. Do you think we can learn anything from it?

More to say, we should carry forward the truth, goodness and beauty. When there is injustice in the world, we should not tell fortune, we should believe in ourselves. You never know where your potential lies. A seemingly impossible task may be completed in one effort. Yu Hua made us doubt the world. Yes, the world is worthy of our doubt, because there are always problems in life. Then what we need is a positive and optimistic attitude to face, to face doubts and to face injustice.

I hope this future will be brilliant after all. Everyone in the story finally died, ending everything, but is it really over when you die? Will people go to heaven and hell after death? Will he still have an idea? These are all questions worthy of our deep thinking.

In a word, death does not mean liberation in modern society. Each of us should live a good life, and the brighter the life, the better? .
