Artistic feature
The author tells the story from the perspective of children, vividly shows the children's world and the adult's world by accurately grasping the children's perspective, and deeply analyzes that "childhood is always a psychological distance, always a psychological cut-in, and always a psychological search". To some extent, watching childhood has become a writer's aesthetic ideal, and the narrative from children's perspective is the best carrier to express his aesthetic ideal.
