Historical evaluation:
Xu Zhimo was an influential writer who was once active in China's literary world. His world outlook has no dominant ideology, or he is a "non-partisan poet" who transcends class. His thoughts, creative features and development trend all show that he is a bourgeois poet.
As a celebrity of that era, Xu Zhimo did everything an ordinary intellectual could do. While pursuing his happy life, he also thought deeply about the fate of the country.
His marriage with Zhang Youyi was unfortunate at that time, and his faint feelings with Lin were sad. His marriage with Lu Xiaoman is warm and affectionate, but full of ups and downs.
He has a certain influence on the development history of China's new poetry, and made various experiments and explorations for the development of new poetry. His poetry has a distinctive and unique style and certain artistic skills.
