Social assessment

Liu Yutang was called "Contemporary Zhao Shuli" and "Folk Singer" by critics. Most of his works are set in the rural areas of Yimeng Mountain in Shandong Province, describing the kindness and persistence of farmers, showing folk ethics, regional affinity and the wisdom and simplicity of ordinary people. His language is relaxed and humorous, which often makes people smile.

On 1993, at the symposium on Liu Yutang's works held by Shanghai Literature and Shandong Writers Association, many critics of Beijing School and Shanghai School, such as Lei Da, Bai Ye, Chen Sihe and Zhou Jie, called him the representative writer of "New Local Novel". They believe that the previous local novels, especially those of seventeen years, focused on expressing social contradictions at that time, while Liu Yutang's novels played down contradictions and highlighted local conditions and customs; In the past, local novels focused on the weaving and creation of stories, while Liu Yutang's novels played down the stories and highlighted the atmosphere. In the past, local novels filtered out many true colors of life for clever plots, while Liu Yutang's novels paid attention to "original flavor" and truly reflected the living conditions of Yimeng people. Chen Sihe, a famous critic, summed up the characteristics of his novels as "showing how the national ideological discourse flows in folk daily life and how folk daily life attracts and digests these discourses, and these discourses become an operable and pathetic procedure in daily life".

Publish a work

1998 the writers' publishing house published Liu Yutang's new local novels, including the novel tenderness in the countryside, the novella the last production team and the short story beyond the mountain, and held seminars on tenderness in the countryside in Beijing and Tianjin respectively with the Innovation Research Department of the Chinese Writers Association and the Shandong Writers Association. More than 100 writers and critics from Beijing, Shandong and other places attended and spoke highly of Tender Country, calling it the spiritual history and struggle history of contemporary farmers. Novel Review specially published the summary of the seminar and a small collection of comments for this purpose. Later, the writers' publishing house published a national special issue of tenderness.

In the fifth issue of Everyone magazine in 2003, in the column of "New Works by Famous Artists", Liu Yutang's novel "The Complete Book of Embarrassment" was launched with a very eye-catching headline position. The author changed his previous writing attitude of clinging to the local people's livelihood, and turned the narrative perspective from Yimeng's folk vision to paying attention to the living situation of intellectuals in small counties, and staged a feast that brought together all kinds of embarrassment, embarrassment, helplessness and helplessness in daily life. Once this work was published, it immediately attracted the attention of readers and critics. Li Jingze, a famous critic, wrote that The Complete Works of Embarrassment is a comprehensive and thorough investigation of the embarrassing situation of local intellectuals in history and reality. Its charm first comes from his language, which has flowing rhythm and speed.

In February, 2004, Embarrassment Daquan was published as one of "Everyone's Libraries", and the famous writer Zhang Wei wrote an inscription for it: If I say that Liu Yutang is one of the most humorous writers, you will definitely not object; I think he is one of the writers who can give people warmth and warmth in this era. He has been a crazy fan of Yimeng Mountain for 30 years, so he has become a rare literary genius in the literary world, a writer who is relished, amazed and unforgettable. He is a master of simplicity and exquisiteness among China writers-this is my taste when I read The Complete Works of Embarrassment.

Regarding Liu Yutang himself and his creation, the famous writer Li Xintian once wrote a poem: Born and raised, he devoted himself to fighting for the shortcomings of farmers. Although there is no golden horse in front of the hall, there are often characters in the book. Small-scale, small-scale, big-scale. Tomorrow, the basket will walk out of the village lane, and weeds and idle flowers will be exposed. Harbin is very beautiful.
