Chapter 1 Translator's Preface (Foreword)

Running with scissors - it's a hint, a symbol. It's more of a metaphor, a typical, American metaphor, and the subtext is: Are you in pain?are you alone?Then don't hesitate, you should shake off your arms, dance with scissors and run all the way.You have to vent as much as you can (no matter who you hurt), and let it go! All lonely people are eager to vent in their hearts but are too timid to vent.And the brave lonely person should hold the scissors in his hand and run and run non-stop; he should not lift his head, his armpit is windy, he roars and screams, his eyes are bloodshot, like a beast!At this time, no one can rashly stop them, otherwise, they may be cut with scissors, so that their skin is torn apart and blood is dripping!

As for the scissor holders who are in a state of madness, they just want to vent, so even if they hurt someone (or accidentally hurt themselves because of the scissors), they still don't know it, don't care about it, and run wildly with the scissors!They want to find a way out while running, they want to cut off all the nets of oppression and bondage, get out of loneliness and pain, move towards joy and freedom, and gain a new life like a phoenix nirvana! A series of characters in this book are such shearers.They experience different forms of loneliness and hesitation, different degrees of loss and confusion. Among them, there is a psychiatrist who is crazy and speaks strangely, his strange family members and patients; there is a "bisexual" poetess full of fantasy , an alcoholic and unhappy professor at a prestigious university; there are pedophiles who live in other people's homes, middle-aged women who like to eat dog food and are rigid and conservative; and cardamom who would rather live with older tennis players for money and so-called love There is a young girl; there is an out-and-out female celibate who regards her father as God, and the protagonist of this book-an ordinary boy who longs for freedom but has to endure various tests... Almost all of these characters have a Commonality: Longing for understanding because of emotional loneliness, fantasizing about freedom because of life depression, yearning for light because of the gloomy future.

With spicy, satirical and humorous writing style, the author presents a colorful picture scroll of American family life. The storyline is vivid, funny, grotesque and astonishing, allowing readers to follow the protagonist to experience the happiest and saddest extreme states of life.The author Burroughs can be regarded as one of the most famous best-selling writers in the United States today. His book is the most popular memory literature book in the United States nowadays. "Top Ten Best-Selling Books of 2002", critics are not hesitant to praise: "No matter which page you read, "Running with Scissors" will make you long to laugh from the bottom of your heart, or make you feel scared, surprised... …it’s witty and humorous, and it’s a detailed and factual account of what some adult men and women who cheat on each other do through the eyes of a child.”

In fact, adult men and women are not the only ones who cheat. Adolescent boys and girls are also deviant. They refuse to follow the rules and despise all red tape.The life credo they pursue is: If you feel depressed and lonely, you must not hold it in your heart, otherwise it will only ruin your life.You should break out of the cage and vent to your heart's content. This is the best medicine to relieve depression and get rid of loneliness.Maybe you will be hoarse, exhausted, and collapsed to the ground due to excessive venting, but at the same time, in the cold and dark tunnel, a beam of warm and bright sunshine quietly shines in...

No matter how much it costs a person, the early escape from emotional and spiritual loneliness is the central theme of this book. ), tell each of us: In this ever-changing and suffocating industrialized world, whether it is you, me or him, we share the same disease, we enjoy the happiness brought by modern civilization, but we also experience unprecedented Bewildered and lonely.In essence, we are all kinds of scissors. In the steel jungle where the jungle of the jungle preys on the weak, there seems to be no other choice but to bite the bullet, dare to fight, and run with the scissors to find the ultimate way out!

And the shining scissors are always dancing left and right, up and down in mid-air, and the blade is sharp, the cold light is flickering, and the air-conditioning is overwhelming!
