What did Zhu Xiang write in the book?
This poem was written in 1979, shortly after the end of ten years of turmoil, and it can be called a companion piece of Believe in the Future (see No.333, fourth edition of this newspaper). They have influenced a whole generation. In those days, many educated youths were encouraged to live tenaciously by believing in the future and loving life when their lives were extremely difficult and their ideals were almost shattered. With unusual perseverance, fortitude, persistence and enthusiasm, the poet told us in a tone that no matter how hard life is, no matter how bumpy fate is, we should be more bumpy, indomitable, bear the burden of humiliation, challenge fate and realize the value of life. All this shows the poet's lofty and solemn proposition: "Believe in the future and love life"! The poet once wrote in another poem "Letters": "We should always remember a truth/whether in happy or painful days/in our hearts, always look forward/in this way, we will not lose the courage to live ..." This poem has a very remarkable feature in capturing images, that is, it selects more objective, painful and sad images, such as "persistent kudzu vine" and "persistent kudzu vine" These images, full of connotation and tension, fully construct the melancholy, profound and rich thoughts and feelings and unique poetic beauty space of the whole poem. This poem follows the consistent artistic style of forefinger poem, which is solemn but not sad, dignified but not heavy, emotional but not sentimental, confused but not confused, shouting in pain, shouting in blood, tearful smile and tenacious song of life!
