Mo Yan: Mo Yan, Jia Pingwa and Yan Lianke should be the three best writers of our time. Before Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize, he didn't think Mo Yan was better than those two. Western thinking, forget it, forget it, come back and talk about Mo Yan. Mo Yan's works are typical magical realism, which may be a little uncomfortable at first. I recommend reading Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude. After reading it, you will understand what magical reality is. The Nobel Prize mentioned his four works, Red Sorghum Family, Big Breasts and Fat Buttocks, Fatigue of Life and Death and Frog, which are all worth reading. Breasts and Hips is the most recommended novel. The image of the mother in the novel is actually a symbol of the troubled China in the 20th century. Wine Country and Sandalwood Punishment are more interesting. One is about eating children, and the other is about the punishment of perverts. The latter is easy to read, and people who like curiosity must read it. Mo Yan recommended three short stories, Red Sorghum, Transparent Carrot and Thumb Cuff.
Jia Pingwa: I may not be able to read Jia Pingwa's works for the first time. I feel that his novels are endless and endless, often 400,000 to 500,000 words. The reason is that the technique of Jia Pingwa's novels is the so-called "trickle of life", that is, there is no clear story line, but all aspects of life are displayed and described in every detail. According to Chen Sihe, Jia Pingwa is a "writer who flies close to the earth". He is a writer who has taken root in Qinchuan. When reading his works, the regional atmosphere is overwhelming. His early "Shangzhou" series is very famous. He recommended "Shaanxi Opera" and won the Mao Dun Literature Award, which is quite high. "Ancient Furnace" is a positive description of the war in the Cultural Revolution, with 680,000 words, which needs to be read patiently. Fei Du was once called Jin Ping Mei. Impetuous writing is beautiful and readable. "There is a lamp" tells the story of a rural grassroots female cadre facing reality. The old student tells a hundred years' history of a place. "Flower" talks about trafficking in women, and it is written in general terms. The latest book, Yamamoto, is a sad work about the struggle of various forces in a small town in Qinling in the 1920s and 1930s.
Liu Zhenyun: Henan plays a golden man. I especially recommend reading his works before entering the society and starting to suffer. Liu Zhenyun's novels are roughly divided into two series, hometown series and officialdom novels, both of which are excellent, and the latter seems to be more famous. His officialdom novels vividly describe the intrigue and sinister intentions in the office. No wonder someone saw him compare the office culture to "a chicken feather". "Man is a socialized animal", which is my greatest experience in reading Liu Zhenyun's works. Recommend novellas Tapp, Xinbinglian, Unit and Chicken Feather in One Place. Yellow Flowers in My Hometown is Liu Zhenyun's first novel, which tells the story of a village's vendetta around the power struggle for half a century. Getting along with my hometown is a work full of banter and allegory. The novel let Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other characters experience in the same group cover four historical periods: Three Kingdoms, Early Ming Dynasty, Late Qing Dynasty, * * * and Early Republic of China. My name is Liu Yuejin, a work full of black humor. Liu Yuejin, the protagonist of the story, stumbled upon a USB flash drive containing the evidence of a senior official. In this way, an ordinary migrant worker was inexplicably involved in various pursuits. A word is worth ten thousand words, and it is an excellent work. The content is very tolerant, and the more you read it, the more interesting it becomes. "I am not Pan Jinlian" (adapted film) tells a story of contemporary petition, which is also a mess. The new book "Children in the Melon-Eating Age" tells the story of a woman who collects debts and strays into prostitution. There are many senior officials among the customers, and one of them was involved in a series of major corruption cases after his fall. The protagonists are strangers, but they are inexplicably tied together.
