[Wen Jing Book Review] A paradise that touches the soul - reading Feng Xiang's "Paradise Where the Wind Lives"

The past events are vaguely like dreams, and they all come to mind with the wind and rain.

I know that Feng Xiang’s words are poured out from his deep heart and are the footprints on his life and creative path. Sincerity, authenticity and authenticity constitute the connotation of Feng Xiang's "Heaven Where the Wind Lives". This kind of book has a power that deeply penetrates people's hearts and touches the soul. The structure and layout of "The Paradise Where the Wind Lives" is divided into "Looking" There are four series: "Xiangtai", "Konoha Fish", "For Whom the Clouds Stop" and "Blue Eagle Grass". With the help of the title and publication time of each article in the article, readers can quickly understand the background of the author's creation at that time, and use this as a guide for us to read effectively.

The folk proverb goes well: "Dig out a well three times to get good water." The same is true for reading. After reading a book three times, you will know its "taste". I have read it many times from beginning to end. Feng Xiang’s works, which he poured out with his most precious and young life, will inevitably arouse some feelings about life in us. Whether it is poetry, prose, documentary, or novel, the author's words, artistic conception, and soul are closely intertwined and interdependent. He writes about his mixed feelings about the passage of life, and also writes about his feelings about the vicissitudes of life. A sense of solemnity. "Heaven Where the Wind Lives" is not just a story about Feng Xiang. From a realistic perspective, ordinary and precise existence is more meaningful than anything else, and it leads most simply to life itself.

The author's description method and language style in the book are very commendable. They are plain and friendly. He describes the events in the same way as the readers' psychology, which suddenly shortens the distance. In fact, the fear of disaster is still deeply buried in the hearts of everyone who has experienced it. In the harsh and terrifying environment with constant aftershocks, the author used his strong will and unusual endurance to endure the torture while writing with his heart. These rare and true records allow the painful and profound memory fragments to be recalled like beads on a string. Thinking about it always makes it difficult for me to control myself and suppress the thousands of emotions in my heart. Fate had treated him badly, but he always loved life and impressed readers with his spiritual world and true feelings. Consistently reveal your inner feelings and strive to find your true inner world. What kind of extraordinary willpower is used to persevere!

? The author of the article "Looking Back and Remembering" recalled that "I started the good habit of keeping a diary since I was studying in Normal University in 1993. From then on, I kept writing. By May 12, 2008, I had written I have written down eighteen...eighteen thick diaries, which have become the most authentic memories and records of my life and mental journey." From this point of view, Feng Xiang's ability to write elegantly and create artistic conception can be outlined with just a few strokes. It is very vivid and meaningful, all due to my continuous hard work. I'm thinking that there has never been a shortcut to "overnight" learning in the world. A person's success in study and work is inseparable from his choice of appropriate learning methods. Any writing about feelings, family relationships and life, if it can touch the flesh and blood, is likely to have a profound shock and create a real soul-to-soul contact with the reader.

Nostalgia is one of the most common themes. The author skillfully uses form, technique, and habitual description of the external environment to highlight the inner activities. The description of the scene may seem to be idle, but the portrayal is in place, making people feel more cordial. It looks beautiful, simple and easy to understand. "Journey to My Hometown in Late Autumn", which can be called a model of narrative method, has several paragraphs full of warm and interesting descriptions of the countryside. It uses environmental contrast, atmosphere creation and other techniques to express Feng Xiang's hometown Qinggangbao where life sprouts. Yanziya has a deeper meaning. When leaves fall, they return to their roots, which is the place where life will inevitably return. It is through the author's description that we will all have a passion for loving our home and loving life from the bottom of our hearts. Einstein said that you should be good at "finding things in reading books that can lead you deeper." From here you can read about the tall and glorious image of the author’s mother who had a profound influence on the author’s life. She only studied in the fourth grade of elementary school and dropped out of school due to family poverty. She “can skillfully read the subtitles on the screen, write letters fluently, and is still in our village. I have been a women's director for nearly thirty years...my mother is still a rural doctor..." The "Postscript" in my brother's memories restores a real Feng Xiang in life. "My mother has rheumatism, and my brother feels sorry for her. In life, He was very considerate for her, and the bed was covered with thick cotton wool to keep her warm. Every night, my brother poured hot water for her mother to soak in medicine and warm her feet." Immersed in it, one can read that the author is a person with very delicate emotions. This characteristic of his is reflected in the context of the work. Readers can not only see the author's thoughts and feelings overflowing between the lines, but also read many things from them. About an ordinary person's extraordinary personal experience.

Every violent movement of nature always tries to destroy something. Every life that was once alive is an unforgettable story. Parting is a painful thing in life, and saying goodbye to loved ones under abnormal circumstances is even more heartbreaking. The human tragedy makes people unable to let it go for a long time. If we ourselves have had similar experiences, maybe we will understand how sad this is, how urgently we ask for the right to survive, and the extreme psychological description is in line with the authenticity of the memory monologue described in "Three Relatives 5.12" He said it vividly: "Many times, I stood in the ruins of Old Street and felt that under the ruins, there were countless innocent souls crying out, and countless hands pulling at the edges of my pants... No matter how kind we are , Suffering will still suddenly visit us, who are small, at an unknown time." Reading in this way, readers can deeply understand the author's confused feelings that permeate it, and it always runs through and reflects the author's deep feelings about the suffering life.

Destroyed things can never be found again, and withered lives can never be found again. With the passage of time and people’s hearts, the unforgettable pain remains in people’s hearts. A scar was drawn on it to recall the memory of his late friend Dong Yufei. The author of "The dead have long since passed away, and the living will live in mourning" wrote: "I have written this sentence: The earthquake cannot carry away the suffering of Beichuan, and the barrier lake cannot drain the blood and tears of the Qiang people. " Such a good text was written in the author's situation, and my eyes couldn't help but moisten. The author reproduced the reality and made the readers deeply feel that disaster is not far away from us.

? "Life is short, only death is eternal. Happiness is short-lived, only pain is long... Goodbye is also eternal..." This sentence from "Autumn Burial in Qucheng" Reading it now makes me think deeply...

? The content of the book "Heaven Where the Wind Lives" is very rich. How the imprint of the past is clearly stamped on the author's heart. Although life is short, it is long. The pain lasts forever, and although loved ones are gone, they leave eternal memories. The author allows his little edge to be worn away by time, and a pure light of soul shines through.

“Drifting with the flow in modern civilization, we are not confused because of ignorance, but because we know too much and have lost our direction.

"We feel life together with the author while reading...
