Yi Shu's novels, the most distinctive? Why?

Qiong Yao's novels can be divided into three periods: the early novels include Out of the Window published by 1963 and Moist White Fox published by 197 1 year, which are mainly short stories of ancient people's love developed from China's folklore. The mid-term novel begins with seagulls flying and burning! Firebird, a love novel set in contemporary Taiwan Province Province, has a happy ending except I am a cloud. The later "Xue Ke" was created and published in the 1980s, and the background of the novel moved back to ancient times, trying to cope with the changing love views of urban men and women, and trying to get rid of the fate of early tragedies and the happiness story formulated in the middle.

Several Sunset Red is an important work in Qiong Yao's novel creation, in which time and space are interlaced, there are many characters and the plot is complex, which can best represent the characteristics of love and affection. The two story lines took place in Chongqing during the Anti-Japanese War and Taipei in the 1960s. The first story is about the young age of the heroine Zhu Meng. She fell in love with Kunming college students, and many gripping stories happened because of her mother's opposition. Finally, I married He. And settled in Taipei. The second part of the novel is the love story of Zhu Meng's daughter Xiao Shuang. Wei, his lover, is He's nephew and works in He Kai's company. Since then, a series of old hatreds and new worries have been intertwined. Finally, he had a lover with Wei and stayed with Mingyuan, while he lived in seclusion in the mountains.

The content and structure of this work are similar to the mode of TV series, that is, the plot is complex and the climax is repeated; Emotional expression is strong and exaggerated; The relationship between characters is entangled because of family grievances; The misunderstanding between people leads to all kinds of lifelong regrets and grievances; The secret and mystery of the protagonist's life experience, as well as war, separation and reunion, are undoubtedly the "basic elements" of popular drama.

To sum up, in Qiong Yao's love kingdom, love is the source of nourishing and inspiring women's self. Without love, a woman's self will wither. In this case, Qiong Yao's female image inevitably appears passive and negative. In fact, during the May 4th Movement, the concept of "love" was a public ideology, which mainly rebelled and challenged the patriarchal system in China, but in Qiong Yao's romance novels, it was completely private. However, this dream world has been pushed to the extreme by the help of its ideology, which has reversed the rights and obligations of the upper class and the lower class in the patriarchal family, so that parents or men with resources and strength can devote themselves wholeheartedly to their children who have nothing, especially women, under the emotional moral call. This is also the spirit of romance novels.

Yi Shu:

Yi Shu-desolate romance

Yi Shu's characters are like chess pieces. She can always arrange their positions. Being together seems to be fate. In the dark, there are arrangements and never show any signs of haste ... Those characters come in order, debut, act, exit, and then the next round of programs. Her director did a good job.

Yi Shu

-some articles, as long as you read the title, you will know how the story will develop-but the article is surprisingly dull, which makes people sigh, wow, so that's it! Maybe this is her charm.

I really like the seemingly casual clues in her works, which often run through them and lead to the ending of the story early ... She is a prolific writer and has been very successful. I like her style and desolate romance, as if I knew love from the beginning, what is true love and what is universal equivalence. Most of her protagonists are smart and sophisticated women who know how to advance and retreat.

Although her writing style is not gorgeous, it is very profound, and some people even regard it as a "sunflower collection" to deal with real life. ...

"A woman should have a lot of love, no love and a lot of money, both of which are not good."

"Be pessimistic from the beginning and will not be disappointed in the future."

"Meeting is just a turn from a distance. Turn around and it will be heaven? " Look, this is Yi Shu.

Yi Shu-concise words

The language style of Yi Shu's novels is also very distinctive, pungent, sharp and realistic, often hitting the point in a few words. In her works, we can vaguely see her favorite Lu Xun's sharpness and Zhang Ailing's calm, objective and agile language to deal with life. Yi Shu is really good at telling love stories. Her tone is always simple and clear. The text is very refined, without any redundant connections. The vicissitudes and pains contained in it are for those who understand. People who don't understand are just bored. Anyone who watches it will be speechless. In fact, all her stories are gloomy. The gray tone makes people feel that Yi Shu must be cynical and full of anger, contempt and even hatred for the world. However, in fact, she is deeply in love with the world, but the world has let her down, forcing her to have no hope for the world, but she still longs for warmth and true feelings. Like Xibao. Xibao is a realistic person in her works. She sold herself for money, but Xibao said: What I want most is love. Without love, I can have health. If there is no health, then I want a lot of money.

Yi Shu-grey degeneration

Ordinary books can always tell whether it is a tragedy or a comedy or a tragicomedy, but Yi Shu's books have no joys and sorrows. At the end, the hero and heroine are happy, so there should be no problem, but the sadness of cursing in the smile has already cooled the reader's heart. Many people in Yi Shu's works are degenerating. Fallen itself may not be a terrible thing-it is sad at most. However, if you are awake when you fall, watching yourself fall and doing nothing is the scariest thing. Give up on yourself, deep down, I can't bear to give up completely. I looked at myself with the most cruel and severe eyes and was mean to myself until I was mean to the world. Because I love this world, I place too much longing on it. When the world betrayed, I hated it in a different way. Because there is too much hope for this world, when this world is abandoned, it is particularly disappointed and even desperate. So in Yi Shu's works, we can see large tracts of gray. Yi Shu said: I just want to tell a story, and I don't want to tell any truth. But the reader just saw too many non-story things behind her story. This may not be Yi Shu's intention, or it may be her intention.

Men and Women in Yi Shu's Works

Most of the men in Yi Shu's novels are disappointing. Take the first half of my life as an example: my honest and diligent husband suddenly discovered his true self and passion, and he was determined to live a new life with the actress, regardless of the feelings of his wife and children; Male colleagues who are full of ambition but have been in the company for half a life are asking single women for cheap under the banner of "my wife doesn't understand me at all"; Boys in their twenties, fresh out of college, want to find experience and comfort in mature women; Gentle and considerate, love art, knowledgeable partner, but gay; Test a few foreign devils who can't swear and turn the rudder immediately ... Of course, these male characters are not bad, just like Zhang Ailing said "just a man". Just a man, how much hope can there be? Therefore, the heroines in Yi Shu are mostly white-collar women in metropolises. They are smart and capable, but they often go through vicissitudes in their emotional life, or suffer emotional setbacks, or feel that there are few outstanding men in the city and it is difficult to find a bosom friend. Therefore, they always have a clear understanding of the feelings between men and women, have a peaceful and realistic attitude towards their future, and do not expect perfect love and marriage; Or some women from the lower classes, mostly gorgeous, agile, seemingly degenerate, but more serious than anyone else. They are so cute and unusual, but they often delay themselves. The most handsome heroine is khaki pants, thick eyebrows, snow-white skin and a white shirt; It is best to be a career superman, who can stand on his fist and play tricks on his boss; People think that men are inferior animals, and they need evolution to be equal to women ... most of them are amorous women who give up classical romanticism early and only rely on self-love and self-improvement Among them, there are single strong women who don't complain when they are lonely, sometimes their mouths are quite hard and they laugh a lot; There are also those who finally find the other half, using their brains instead of their hearts.

Yi Shu-Cold City

Yi Shu's works bear the imprint of the times, and are mainly set in modern metropolises in Hongkong, Europe and America. Although all her works are stories about love, the emotional development of the protagonist is closely related to the social network around her, and the former often succumbs to the latter. It can be said that Yi Shu shows a cold and realistic urban society under the appearance of deductive love, and shows all kinds of repression and alienation of human personality and psychology in this urban environment. Ni Kuang once said: "Yi Shu grew up in Hong Kong, and her novels, which are in the same strain as Hong Kong people, are authentic Hong Kong literature. Her novels are unpretentious and have the character of Hong Kong people. "
