2. Main works
3, creative characteristics:
(1) Sanmao's works are emotional, without too much whitewashing, but they show the true colors of life, wisdom and interest in life. In her works, there are no flowers and months, very much in love, and the chirping words described in general love works. Even though she wrote about her life when she fell in love with Jose before marriage in Marriage, she only wrote about how they sat on a bench in a Spanish park in the cold wind and thought about how to solve the problem of food and clothing.
(2) Sanmao experienced gloomy girlhood and troubled youth and middle age, which made sadness the keynote of her works. This sensitivity to pain has always remained in Sanmao's character and has had a great influence on her later writing. She pays attention to herself and the world around her with kind, sad and pitying eyes, so the lines in her works are always full of sad beauty. For example, in The Dumb Slave, Sanmao successfully portrayed for us an image of a black slave who lives in deep suffering and has no personal freedom, but is full of love and wisdom.
