Su Tong: How can a snake fly?
How could a quetzal of the Tuteung, one of the most influential writers in the Chinese paragraph, fly? The tung, who has built his own unique literary world through various formal experiments, has announced the silence of five years and shows the unconscioned urban landscape in China at the end of the century. In particular, the Chinese lower-class life raises questions about the authenticity and humanity that we need to protect from life. The novel is based on the railway station square in a big city, which is about the 21st century, and it's a collection of modern Chinese reality and Chinese sub-middlers. The story of the blonde girl with a massive plastic surgery, who went crazy in her life in the lottery, who was murdered in a beautiful castle, who wasted her life for self-respect and dignity, is told by characters who spoke out about her low-level victims. These figures have been a clear example of the problem of breaking communication in modern China. As people in a town who grew up on a street, they were not the ones who lived in the wild, but the ones that were on guard, suspicious, and refusing to communicate, and eventually they ended up on their own path to collapse. Instead of sending compassion to them, the author looks at them with a cynical look.
