Chapter 2 Zhang Yueran has grown up——read "Ten Loves"

"Post-80s" female writer Zhang Yueran's works, because I have read them intermittently, feel fragmented, but the impression is quite deep.I have recently read her newly published collection of novels (July 2004 edition by Writer's Press), and the overall feeling is that while Zhang Yueran is constantly growing in the tempering of life, she is also constantly maturing in the experience of literature.As a young girl writer Zhang Yueran, she has grown up completely. The clear sign of this kind of growth and maturity lies not only in her deeper and more inner understanding of love, but also in her more pungent and sharper expression of love.Zhang Yueran before this, especially Zhang Yueran in this stage, combined deep love, deep kindness and faint beauty.At that time, it can be seen from her feelings and narration that she was especially good at touching the scene and expressing emotion, especially good at sentimental feelings.What all of this reveals is a sensitive, innocent and sad Zhang Yueran.She can feel remorse, annoyance and regret for the damage of every beautiful thing and the loss of every beautiful moment. It makes people feel that the combination of detailism and perfectionism is very pleasant, but fragile.But in "The Dancing Man", we saw her change. In "The Dancing Man", Xiao Xi, who was about to get married, saw her first love boyfriend who had passed away for seven years come to her again and again, so she escaped from the wedding scene and appeared on the run. Car accident; "Harp, Bone Demon", she wrote that she dedicated 37 bones to her musician husband to make his beloved harp. When she gave the last bone, she was so sad that she suffered from depression. The way of stabbing himself to death freed himself and fulfilled his husband, but the bloody bones were still useless.Here, the story is still poignant, but the understanding of love is more profound. Love can make people's feelings illusion and transcend reality, thus causing tragic tragedy; in terms of artistic expression, the sharp narrative and bloody words have already made people feel It made Zhang Yueran's artistic wrist stronger and more powerful.

I also especially appreciate the two works "Gino's Vault" and "Who Killed May". In "Gino's Vaulting Horse", Gino met a man in physical education class, and learned a sad love story from his narration. The protagonist, after knowing that her father is the killer of this love, she seems to hear the call of the girl who died in the vault amidst the emotion and grief, so she jumps over the vault herself... This story tells the story of love The influence on that man, and the influence of love on Gino, it can be said that the appeal and penetrating power of love are expressed vividly and cannot be added.But if you love to seduce people and control people, if you lose your sense of proportion, it will lead to tragedy. The man Gino met was already a tragedy victim, but he made Gino a new tragedy victim by creating tragedy. The young female writer in "Who Killed May", in order to get rid of the mediocre life, traveled to a town in the south of the Yangtze River in May after the beginning of spring, and a "San Zhuo Studio" in the town attracted her.After taking photos twice, the little female writer felt that San Zhuo, who was skilled and untidy, was just the man he needed, and San Zhuo also felt that the small, smart and quick-witted little female writer was the woman he liked. They developed from talking about everything to loving each other .Next, the author did not deal with the story in a normal way, but chose to leave because the little female writer felt that San Zhuo needed the woman who was already living with her; but seven years later, San Zhuo suddenly received a young female writer describing their experiences. The author's novel "Who Killed May" and San Zhuo's own photography collection that he had always wanted to publish but failed to publish constituted a meaningful ending.People leave, hearts remain unchanged, and love spreads in another way.here.To leave resolutely requires courage; to miss deeply requires tenacity; these are actually the embodiment of the strength of emotion and heart.It is not difficult for people to appreciate Zhang Yueran's strong wrist strength from the firm belief and behavior of the young female writer in the works.In these two works and most of the works in this collection, the author did not make her own evaluation on the stories and characters. She just described the event itself objectively and faithfully. This noncommittal or ambiguous attitude makes the works On the contrary, it has a kind of ambiguity and uncertainty, which is very thought-provoking and chewy.

Zhang Yueran's language matches her narration, and has initially formed her own artistic characteristics.For example, Gino couldn't extricate himself after listening to the story told by the man, saying: "The story is very long and sad, like a brocade handkerchief that can't be finished, gradually weaving women into it"; When the man said that he had no dreams in the 15 years since his lover died, and his heart was still like water, he said, "The days are like the electrocardiogram of a dead person, a straight line without ripples."For example, describing Xiaoran's dry mouth due to lack of water, "I am very thirsty. My lips are like a fish dehydrated, and scales are falling off." These descriptions are very extraordinary and vivid, and they are very similar to Zhang Yueran. Compared with those delicate and graceful words in the past, they are obviously more tense and powerful.

Zhang Yueran used to be called a "young jade girl". I think this small hat is no longer suitable for her now. She has stepped out of the "joyful and dazed" youthful state and approached the dense and undisturbed literary realm; and She is getting better at capturing the material of love in daily life, and getting better at discovering the tragic meaning in love.These things made her gradually enrich herself and transcend the past. I thought that if she was placed in the ranks of contemporary writers, she would already be graceful and graceful, and she would be in a class of her own.
