Selected Works of Xue Mo Novels is a collection of short stories written by Xue Mo, a representative writer of Western literature, which is completely based on the western land. This book includes four novels, Xinjiangye, Yue'er, The Sound of Broad Beans at Night and Jackal. In the story, the poor and old Xinjiangye leads a peaceful life because of his clean and beautiful love without any desire; the sick Yue'er breaks down in the confused City, but is relieved because of her pure yearning in the later stage of her life; in the famine predicament, Xueyu'er, who has the chivalrous responsibility, is almost eaten by her uncle's family; Lanlan and Yinger experienced a slim chance of surviving in the desert, they fight against fate tenaciously and escape from danger. 从表面看，雪漠的小说故事情节，无论是爱情还是亲情，其中总透露出苍凉与悲惨，但深思又觉出主人公们是在倔强地过着自己的西部沙漠生活，用自己的方式实现内心的平衡与祥和。因此，这些小说读来总有一种沉重的感觉，让人久久回味。同时，作者在故事中加入了沙漠、骆驼、豺狗子、黄沙等许多西部生活元素，使得全书透出独特而浓郁的西部气息，这也是本书的最大特点之一。On the surface, the plot of Xue Mo's novel, whether love or family affection, always reveals desolation and misery. However, after deep thinking, the protagonists are living their own life in the western desert stubbornly, achieving inner balance and peace in their own way. Therefore, these novels always have a heavy feeling, which makes people aftertaste. At the same time, the author adds many Western life elements such as desert, camel, jackal, yellow sand and so on to the story, which makes the book have a unique and strong Western flavor, which is one of the characteristics of the book.

《豺狗子》157
The woman threw the empty bottle into the gully. The camel wanted to tell her not to throw the bottle away. They could still re-fill it if they met herders or camel-drivers and could beg some water off them. It snorted. Of course the woman did not understand. Perhaps, it thought, she didn’t like the idea of drinking from a bottle that had been in the mouth of a camel. 女人将空瓶扔向沙洼。驼很想告诉女人，那瓶子别扔，因为要是遇上牧人或是驮户们，就可以向他们要些水，这瓶子还能盛水的。它叫了一声。女人当然听不懂那话。驼又想，她是不是嫌我弄脏了瓶口呢？The camel looked sadly towards the gully. There was no help for it. It was hers to throw away, nothing to do with the camel.驼于是忧伤地望望沙洼。它想，随她吧。人家扔的，是人家的东西，管你啥事？Then it saw the other woman retrieve the bottle, wipe the mouth of the bottle on her jacket and put it back in the bag that hung from its back.却见另一个女人捡回了瓶子。她用衣襟擦擦瓶嘴，放入挂在它背上的袋里。
