Media comments on corn

In this book called Corn, the first thing we see is "people", unforgettable people. Sister corn is broad, she is like an eagle, she is the king, she belongs to the daytime, and she has a mighty long wind; Yuxiu and Yumiao belong to the night, which is secret and ambiguous, mixed with fear and ecstasy. Jade show is like a demon, flashing and rippling, and this fiery fox is looking for it in the moonlight and fleeing everywhere. Jade plant is mediocre, but it is this mediocrity that attracts Bi Feiyu. He saw vole-like sensitivity and vigilance in the dullness and heaviness of jade seedlings.

Three people, three women, they grew up in other places, and they all dream of the distance. However, the road to the distance is rugged and dangerous. Yuyang is the farthest of the three sisters, but it is a dark and narrow "cave" wherever it goes; There is an iron survival limit under their feet and hearts. On dry and hard land, they are thirsty and broken.

Bi Feiyu's exploration of "limit" has covered a wide range of topics such as history, politics, power, ethics, gender and sex, towns and villages. All these topics are like blood vessels running under the skin of human life. For us, reading Corn is the awakening and arrangement of experience. The rural areas and towns in the 1970s, as well as the daily situation at that time, were precisely developed in Bi Feiyu's works, which was absolutely specific because it went straight to the essence.

If Tsing Yi is a successful metamorphosis, the corn in 200 1 seems to be a complete transformation.

Wangjiazhuang is a historical landscape built by Bi Feiyu. If we say that with the help of this landscape, he has an inherent view of history, then Bi Feiyu's writing of the "Cultural Revolution" shows his rational cognition of history. Compared with most novelists who are concerned about the "tragic" Cultural Revolution, he is concerned about the hidden influence of the Cultural Revolution. For example, in Yu Yang, you will see that the "Cultural Revolution" deeply penetrated into the lives of Wei Xiangdong and others. The narrative, which is full of irony and alienation, shows how the "revolutionaries" of the Cultural Revolution entered the sexual behavior process of a participant in the Cultural Revolution. This is the invasion of the "Cultural Revolution" thinking into people's lives, and it is also a profound metaphor of how the "Cultural Revolution" thinking became a daily life.
