How to evaluate Zhang Ailing's prose?

When I was young, I couldn't appreciate the beauty of Zhang Ailing's prose-I couldn't taste the charm of her prose at all because of my thoughts and experiences. When I was in my twenties, I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until I turned over Zhang Ailing's prose-only in this way can I know Zhang Ailing a little.

I even think that Zhang Ailing's prose, in a sense, transcends her novels. At least, for me, reading Zhang Ailing's prose has a feeling of never getting tired of reading. Every once in a while, I will find out her prose to appreciate-and rereading it feels like reading A Dream of Red Mansions-every time I reread it, with the change of age and mood, I will appreciate the same text with different feelings. However, a writer, perhaps, his prose can better reflect his literary talent and skills. Many writers who can write good novels may not have wonderful prose.

If reading Zhang Ailing's novels only reveals Zhang Ailing's precocity, then her prose only surprises me with her explicit precocity and precocity. This amazing precocity is finely embedded in Zhang Ailing's prose, which is readily available and handy.

"Time is like a sharp knife-if it is not used properly, it will carve deep lines on a beautiful face, so that youthful youth will be worn away month after month and year after year; However, if used properly, it can carve an ordinary stone into a magnificent statue. " -this is an excerpt from Zhang ailing's 16-year-old article. Not only is the writing exquisite, but there is also a precocity that does not match its age.

"The man boasted about his victory-the woman boasted about her retreat. However, the reason why the enemy attacks is often caused by herself. " "You suddenly ask a woman a question, and her first answer is about official history, and the second answer is fiction." -It's really interesting.

"Liu Bei once said,' Brothers are like brothers, and wives are like clothes'." However, if a woman can do this, it will not be easy. There is a western writer (is it Bernard Shaw? ) I once complained that most women choose husbands far less carefully than hats. Think about it carefully. A heartless woman, talking about her' last year's brocade robe', is also infatuated. "-really.

"I have always been very kind to older people. I look down on people my age, respect and fear children, and stay away from them completely." -I couldn't agree more.

Zhang Ailing dares to say that she is selfish, and also reveals her true colors in her prose. And Hu Lancheng in this life also wrote-"Her selfishness is that a person makes a scene in a festive festival, and her own existence is particularly clear".

Sometimes I wonder whether it takes more courage for a woman to reveal her privacy in Sex, or more wisdom and courage for a woman to analyze selfishness, darkness and ugliness in Human Nature. Like Scarlett and Belle in Gone with the Wind. If you ask me which woman I think is more "bad", I think I will answer Scarlett. But if you ask me which woman I admire more, I will still answer the former. Because, a woman with more brains, wisdom and insight always makes me admire more. Even if it is "bad", the "bad" of the mind is still very high. Of course, it is extremely important to measure a person's overall moral level. But if a person who has lost his wisdom and only knows what the slogan is called "Dajie", it can only be ignorance and blind obedience. Sex is only a small part of life; Humanity is everything.

Fourth, people.

Of course, Zhang Ailing has a thorough view of human performance-emotional indifference between parents; The alienation of affection between father and daughter, mother and daughter; The fall of love; The struggle on the verge of life and death when Hong Kong fell ... made Zhang Ailing deeply understand that in this world, the so-called feelings are nothing more than that-husband and wife can turn against each other; A father can lock up his daughter, whether she lives or dies; The horror of war and death, the preciousness of money ... In this world, the indifference of human nature has made Zhang Ailing realize too much.

Of course, I don't deny that in politics, Zhang Ailing was not firm at a certain period. Indeed, a person's personality and morality are closely related to his art-if you put aside a person's minimum sense of morality, then Qin Gui can be regarded as a leading calligrapher; As a bad king, Song Huizong is an artist with extraordinary artistic attainments and brilliant talents. His unique and beautiful fine gold lettering is a must. Li Yu, the king of national subjugation, wrote beautifully; If it weren't for some political issues, Zhou Zuoren's position in prose art would be better than today ... To measure a person's integrity, we really can't ignore the moral aspect.
