What is the artistic conception of Dai Wangshu's "Rain Alley"?

By describing the narrow and gloomy rain alley, the lone walker wandering in the rain alley, and the girl who is as sad and resentful as a lilac, the author implicitly hints that the author is confused, sentimental, and hopeful. feelings, and gives people a hazy and deep sense of beauty. Others interpret these images as a reflection of the dark society at that time, or of people who failed in the revolution and their hazy, intermittent hope.

This poem is both real and imaginary, hazy and trance-like. "I" seems to be full of worries and endless worries, but I don't want to express them clearly, or I am unable to express them. "I" seems to be expecting something and pursuing something, but the goals of expectation and pursuit seem so distant and elusive.

"She" appeared, maybe in an illusion, or maybe it was real, but "she" appeared so quickly and passed so quickly, passing by and disappearing in an instant. Ahead, "as sad and confused as a dream." "I" can only feel sorry for myself and feel sorry for myself.

We can think of the "girl" in the poem as an actual reference, the beautiful, noble and melancholy girl that the poet has been waiting for for a long time. But we can also regard this "girl" as the vague ideals and pursuits in the poet's heart, representing the poet's vague longing for the future when he is trapped in the depression of life. Extended information

"Rain Alley" was written in the summer of 1927, after the bloody "April 12" massacre. The poet was 22 years old. The poet, who was once arrested for joining the revolution, faced the white terror that enveloped the country and was lost in pain and confusion. He lived in seclusion at a friend's house in Songjiang, Jiangsu Province, chewing on "the troubles of being Chinese in this era" in loneliness, "sitting at night listening to the wind, sleeping during the day listening to the rain", and looking forward to the beautiful rainbow floating in the haze.

But life is poor, and he spends his days "writing under the moonlight by the window," and the poet can only seek solace in "the footprints of the old days," "the colorful clothes of youth," and lingering under the stars. The gentleness, melancholy and pressure of the times make "Rain Alley" a projection of the darkness of reality and disillusionment of ideals in the poet's heart, filled with emotions of hesitation, disappointment and sentimental pain.
