There are Farewell to Cambridge, Poems of Zhimo, Cold Jade Night, etc. His translated works include Mansfield's novels Gandy and Mary, and his essays include Autumn, Fallen Leaves, Scales in Paris and Self-anatomy. And the novel "Spring Scar".
First, Xu Zhimo's character 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. Xu Shi's poems are fresh and natural, harmonious in rhythm, novel in metaphor, rich in imagination, beautiful in artistic conception, elegant in thought, full of changes, pursuing regularity and splendor in artistic form, and having distinct artistic personality.
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.
Second, the characteristics of poetry
Xu Zhimo's poems and songs are unique in style. Like a woman who pursues beauty, the first thing he looks at is gorgeous appearance. Chu Anping once said in the article "Mourning for Mr. Zhimo": "The connotation is its bones, and the rhetoric is its appearance; The strongest house can't be regarded as its architectural art without some modern colors and contours. "
This shows that Xu Zhimo's artificial style, colorful language and exaggerated sentences directly constitute the external beauty of his prose, just like the "appearance" of a free and easy romantic genius. Perhaps it is because he pays too much attention to the beauty of appearance and form, but ignores the forging of life connotation, which makes his poems sometimes enter the realm of illusion and decadence.
Of course, even if he expresses such connotation, it is full of the beauty of his gorgeous appearance. This proves that his love life is the same. The crisis in his later love affair with Lu Xiaoman was also the result of his initial attention to external beauty.
