Hulan River Biography in My Eyes

The thin short story Biography of Hulan River is a novel that has a great influence on me. When I first read this novel, I was deeply shocked. After that, I watched it again Xiao Hong is my favorite female writer. In my opinion, Xiao Hong is the best contemporary female writer in China, as well as Zhang Ailing.

Because of the word "river" in the title of the novel, I want to tell you a story related to "river". You must have heard the theme song "My Motherland" of the movie "Shangganling". The first sentence of this song is very infectious: "Big rivers have wide waves". Have you ever wondered which river is "a big river" in the lyrics?

Qiao Yu, a songwriter, said that this big river originally referred to the Yangtze River, but in the song, it didn't start with "the width of the waves of the Yangtze River". This is because everyone's hometown must have a river. Starting with "a big river", it will remind people of the rivers and villages closely related to their hometown and make them feel more cordial. (/question/39040809)

This story leads to the first topic I want to discuss today: hometown.

The Biography of Hulan River is an autobiographical novel with hometown and childhood as its theme. Through a child's self-reported style, it describes the people and events in this small town of Hulan River.

This book consists of seven chapters, mainly telling stories about seven different themes. Here, I use "theme" instead of "theme" because I can't accurately summarize the main contents of each chapter. Each chapter is a series of different trivial stories, but it is still not satisfactory to read.

This book is like a storyteller telling you a story. This storyteller is like an old man with white hair, a little girl of five or six years old. The tone of the story in this novel always makes me imagine that my grandmother is in front of me, hugging me, telling her childhood life, telling the old lady in the west of the village from the eldest sister in the east of the village without logic, and jumping to the next topic as soon as one topic is finished; It's like my sister who is a few years younger than me is talking to me, observing what she can and can't understand in childish language.

The uniqueness of Hulan River Biography lies in 1. It successfully describes the life of a small town character through the child's perspective and way of speaking; This is a masterpiece of local life in a county. From this novel, we can see the life content and character of people in an isolated county.

A good novel is a written version of photos and documentaries that record the times. From this novel, we know that in the early years of the Republic of China, in the Hulan River, at night, everyone watched the sunset glow, and the spectacular programs were dancing; Visit the temple fair, how the girls in the temple fair met, how shy they were, and so on. The Biography of Hulan River depicts many representative rural figures. A good writer can bring the characters' personalities to life with only a few strokes. In this novel, there is a woman who sells bean sprouts, a grandfather who teaches me to study and a child who buys hemp flowers.

Besides these, the novel also describes some shocking feudal ignorance, such as an illegitimate child who was starved to death and forgotten, a reunited daughter-in-law who was bought and abused to death, and a grandmother who stabbed my hand.

Biography of Hulan River evokes people's complex emotions. I have mixed feelings when I read this book. At first, I couldn't help laughing at the seemingly carefree childhood of the little girl in the novel, as if each of us had come from this childhood, playing the same noisy games and having the same incomprehension and expectation for the adult world; Reading and reading, I feel sad and worried about the characters in the story, lamenting the fate of playing tricks on people and my inability to resist; At the end of the novel, I described a man who was unlucky in others' eyes, but he was unaware of it, lived a vibrant life (Feng crooked mouth) and gave birth to many expectations in the desolation.

I think in this novel, Xiao Hong's language style is to use a lot of sketches to tell stories in a frank, colloquial and prosaic language, and at the same time add some comments of her own.

I want to talk about the author Xiao Hong. I think Xiao Hong, a female writer with the highest literary contribution on Zhang Ailing's shoulder, is a natural writer and a child prodigy. With her talent, I can only clap my thighs when I write and read her articles. The original article can still be written like this, and the words can still flow so succinctly and smartly.

I think this novel is a good medium to analyze Xiao Hong's personality characteristics. Everyone knows that Xiao Hong is a short-lived person with many twists and turns in his life. Through the search engine, we can easily find Xiao Hong's experience, but we can't know her personality, mood and attitude towards life. This novel can be said to be a good opportunity for us to know Xiao Hong.

Biography of Hulan River was written on 1940. Xiao Hongnian was only 29 years old and lived in Hong Kong. He has suffered from the situation that his parents abandoned him, his lover abandoned him, his child died young and his health went from bad to worse. Soon, 1942, Xiao Hong died. In the ravaged life, Xiao Hong wrote this book, recalled her childhood, and wrote about loving her grandfather and her friends who played with her. Although the tone of this novel is desolate, unfortunate and ignorant people, what impressed me most is the people in this city who are resigned to their fate and live happily.

Especially in the last chapter of the article, Feng Biaozi, a character who spent a lot of pen and ink to describe, loves his wife, and although he is poor, he is regarded as a stranger in a feudal town. His wife died in childbirth. Everyone is waiting to see Feng Biaozi's jokes, thinking that he will not live, but he doesn't care and still feels that life is full of hope.

There is a saying that describes Feng's crooked mouth: "Although he is sad and often full of tears, he immediately smiled at his tearful eyes when he saw that his eldest son would drag him to drink water. He said,' It will be useful slowly.' "

Finally, this chapter briefly describes Feng Waizuizi's youngest son. "Smile a little and the little white teeth will be exposed." It seems to give infinite expectations to a seemingly desperate life.

In the cold and hunger, Xiao Hong wrote a novel with a warm ending and ups and downs. This makes me guess that Xiao Hong must be an indomitable, optimistic and energetic person who can't beat the darkness of life.

Biography of Hulan River is a novel I read repeatedly, which has influenced me in many aspects. It tells me how to write an article, how to write a story according to the observed life content, and how to write a story in spoken and ordinary vernacular. The most important thing is to remind me to keep my child's childlike innocence and face the stormy waves of life with fiery vitality.

Now, I want to discuss a few issues with you.

1. Where is your hometown? If you wrote a novel or article about your hometown, what would you write?

2. What do you remember about your childhood? If you wrote a novel or article about your childhood, what would you write?

3. Which writer has the highest artistic achievement in everyone's eyes? Which of her literary works do you like best? What influence did this literary work have on you?

Xiao Hong is a writer who died young. She lived only 3 1 year, but left a rich spiritual legacy to future generations. In everyone's eyes, who are short-lived but talented people? If they can live longer, they will have more brilliant creations in their own fields. I can think of Wang Bo and Mozart.

Finally, I'd like to share with you one of my favorite essays written by Xiao Hong. Although this essay is short, it has a great influence on me. It is called Forever Vision and Pursuit. I want to use the title of this essay to express my wishes to everyone, hoping that everyone can maintain an "eternal vision and pursuit" for their future life.
