朋友们好，我是莫言。
我之前聊过许多我读过的书，今天摘录出来与大家分享。
炎炎夏日，让我们一起来阅读经典。
One of the good novels in my mind, "Strange Tales from Liaozhai".
Mr. Pu has a rich imagination that is beyond the reach of any writer today.
He wrote stories in the most elegant language.
Make many fictional fox ghost novels,
Rich in the breath of life, it became so believable.
And his greatness lies in always putting people first when writing.
A "Liaozhai" can be immortal and can be passed down through the ages.
When I was a teenager, I read this novel ("Forging Swords") in my middle school Chinese textbook.
Decades later, it is still hard to forget that this peculiar novel shocked my soul.
Although it was impossible to fully understand the novel at that time, I could still feel the profound connotation, rich symbolism and strange artistic charm of the novel. It was said that there were symbols in the story, but no one could tell what they all symbolized.
Here is a spirit that is black and shiny, a spirit that is hot and cold like ice.
And this is precisely the consistent spirit of Lu Xun.
I borrowed a copy of "How Steel Is Tempered" from a teacher who appreciated me very much.
The charming first love of Paul and Tonia, the filthy boiler-burner's daughter and the forester's daughter in sailor's uniform, really made my dreams haunt me like lovesickness.
How many years have passed, and the scenes that lived in my mind are still vivid in my mind.
I read this book more than 30 years ago, and I haven't read it since, but everything is in front of me, and I haven't forgotten a single detail.
Paul and Tonya eventually parted ways and became two cars running on the road, each running towards their future.
When I read this, it was hard to describe the feeling in my heart.
After reading "How Steel Was Tempered", the story of my childhood reading came to an end.
This is a great novel imbued with modern spirit.
So far, it is still so vibrant, so energetic, so shocking to the soul.
From the perspective of the ability to create characters,
It is another masterpiece that inherits the precious line drawing tradition of Chinese classical novels.
The words of the characters are heard as if they were seen.
The book also showcases Mr. Zhu's powerful, full-bodied, imagery-rich language style, which is like a rapids waterfall.
His language is like a wall made of stone, full of sharp edges.
His words echoed like smooth pebbles thrown on a copper plate.
Such a language requires running to read.
