Novel of the same name

Zhang Ailing's "waves and floating flowers" is the fragment of this stream of consciousness. In the four volume Anthology of Anhui literature and art, another version is bought. It is called "the story of lost" under the name of the original edition. The preface says that it is taken from the poem "this situation can be recalled, but it is lost at that time". The title is obviously the novel that Zhang values most in this anthology.

Novel review

The protagonist of the novel is a celibate woman. After liberation, she applied to Hong Kong from the mainland, and then her friends applied to go abroad. It's very autobiographical. A woman in her late 30s, without a home or a job, is sitting alone on a mail boat to go to an unknown hometown. She has no gain or loss. She has a vast future and a vast future. On the contrary, she has achieved this goal, which is like a temporary separation from the world. the most difficult thing is the state of mind. It has been emphasized many times that the freighters on South China, like the hometown of Maugham, quietly pass through a hotel passageway, a well maintained old building. The carpets are out of sound, and the air is tight. It reminds people of the cylindrical passageway of time travel, where time and space begin to be confused, thoughts suddenly fly away, and dragonflies across the river of memory There are friends of my sister, the love affair of that capable woman and her husband; the man I chatted with when I was in Guangdong; the year-end Carnival Party of the bank where I work - I can be reasonably forced to kiss; some comments on the food on board All the way down, men and women are unbearable stress, spots such as the filth on white clothes, but the road is like water, only feel strange comfortable. According to Freud's dream interpretation, the ego is under the dual pressure of social norms and instinct, so it needs to be regulated by dreams to relieve the pressure. Zhang Ailing wrote and explained that she was really carefree and comfortable. It was like sitting down and feeling exhausted. Although the people on the other side of the boat were vomiting, they were so far away that they finally fell asleep.

Another novel

This article is less written, and the writing style is much more straightforward. At the beginning, I tried to take you to a dream. "When a tram driver drives a tram, the tram track looks like two bright lines in the sun. The lines that come out of the water are lengthened and shortened, and then lengthened and shortened. Just move forward. The lines of the smooth old elder are endless, endless The author further hypnotizes us, "the streets are gradually quiet, not absolutely quiet, but just like Xi Su of Luhua pillow in his sleep, if the big city sleeps in the sunshine." - Zong Zhen and Cui yuan start their sleepwalking, and they are happy The pressure of the meeting is off. They're in love. When they talked about marriage and family happiness, they prayed for a part of life, sacrifice and responsibility. She cried, and then the blockade ended. "A burst of cheering wind blew through the big city, and Zongzhen suddenly stood up and disappeared into the crowd." Cui yuan was still half awake, watching the passers-by living and dying in the tram window, expecting Zongzhen Call him - that's like a dead man coming back to life. However, when the light was on in the tram, she looked up and saw him sitting in his original seat. As if nothing had happened, she finally understood what he meant: "everything happened during the blockade period, which means nothing happened. The whole Shanghai took a nap and had an unreasonable dream." In fact, Zongzhen still remembers that his thoughts were too painful. Between the lights on and off, he finally decided to go to sleep. This dreamless sleep was the real waking time.

On Zhang Ailing's Novels

Eileen Chang's novels are extraordinary. They are prosperous at the beginning, so they are hard to survive. It is generally acknowledged that the later novels are not as good as the earlier ones. Judging from these two articles, no matter from the delicate structure or the charm of language, blockade seems to be stronger than floating flowers. But aesthetics is a very personal thing. I recently bought some ukiyo brochures, but I always feel that the benefits are too exposed, revealing the cultural self-confidence. I still like Chinese literati paintings. They have abnormal taste and narcissism.
