Eight novels in 2008

1. Deng Yiguang, I am my God, Beijing Publishing House.

In this work full of heroism and sadness, the author, Mongolian veteran Wu Zatugula and his son, described the ups and downs and inner conflicts in their lives, and described the awakening of people's consciousness of self-subjectivity at the turning point of fate, as well as the difficult process from being influenced by others to relying on the spirit of self-pursuit. There is no "God" in the world, but there is a "God" in itself. This is the gratifying consciousness of the second generation of Wuli family and the difficult awakening of the whole nation. Accompanied by this spiritual pursuit of individuals and families, the novel uniquely depicts the fate and mentality of two generations closely related to the Republic, records the ups and downs they experienced for more than half a century, outlines a vivid era, and fully shows the writer's questioning and pursuit of his spiritual world and spiritual ontology in his artistic creation.

2. Yan Zhen "Because of Women", People's Literature and Art Publishing House

Yan Zhen once described the terrible ending that young literati were gradually assimilated by officialdom culture and alienated from the surging water, while this novel Because of Women described the tragic process of an innocent woman from pursuing ideal love to falling into the paradox of loveless marriage. In this story of Liu Yiyi unconsciously becoming someone else's lover and finally getting married, the author seems to be questioning love and women in the face of the current reality, but in fact he is questioning men and society. "Because women should be unfortunate? Whose reason is this? The question is realistic, rich in connotation and even mysterious, but it is really worth asking, questioning and torturing. The theme is grand and detailed, and it can even be called a thread, which makes this work attractive and attractive.

3. Xu Kun's rhapsody in august, Beijing October Literature and Art Publishing House

The theme of rhapsody in august is the Beijing Olympic Games, but it is not limited to the Olympic Games itself. It takes the construction of Beijing Olympic venues as the main line to structure the story, and creates a brand-new image of a generation of young urban managers and architects represented by Li Shuguang. The works not only face the reality but also have lofty ideals, betrayal and misunderstanding, seduction and indulgence, sadness and helplessness, laughter and crying, sacrifice and dedication, which together create a bold meaning of the integration of reality and romance, and the connection between reality and dreams. New people taking photos and singing in the Olympics are full of youthful vitality and the vitality of the times, which constitutes a unique way to eulogize the centennial Olympic dream and the prosperity of the country.

4. Convex and concave Xuanwu, Jiangsu Literature and Art Publishing House

This is a lyric epic picture of rural changes with a 50-year history as the background and rural areas in western Beijing as the scene. Among them, the profound revelation of the inside story of the operation of rural grass-roots power in China is very shocking; The meticulous depiction of the growth of rural farmers' spirit from atrophy to self-confidence is particularly admirable. The long-term struggle between Wang Liping, the overbearing village chief, and Ming Wan, an old farmer without grievances, vividly reveals the growth and enhancement of farmers' spiritual strength, which is more important than increasing production and income, because it means that ordinary farmers are self-reliant in their lives. Here, the works reveal the great and profound changes that have taken place in rural areas in the past 50 years.

5. Jiang Zilong's Peasant Empire, People's Literature Publishing House.

With the 30 years of reform and opening up as the background, and the life experience of Guo Cunxian as the clue, the works describe the ups and downs of rural life delicately and profoundly, and analyze the corrosion and distortion of power on human nature more incisively. The process of "getting rich" made Guo Cunxian get carried away. He regarded Guo's shop as Guo's "empire" and he was the supreme "emperor" of this "empire". As a result, comedy began to switch to tragedy, and finally itself and the whole "empire" went to destruction. No right is grassroots, and power is lean; In charge of power, regardless of human life, the expansion of power will be humble. The variation of Guo Cunxian's human nature is due to his limited personality as a farmer and the lack of restriction of rural grass-roots power, which makes it easy for those in power to do whatever they want. Here, the work also shows its profound meaning.

6. Bi Feiyu's Massage, People's Literature Publishing House

The work begins with a massage shop and several masseurs, and gradually unfolds the unique and real daily life of blind masseurs. The novelty of the work lies not only in describing the life of the blind, which is rarely reflected in literature and novels, but also in the fact that the author feels and understands the world from the perspective of the blind with great respect and understanding for the blind, truly appreciates and restores the rich and delicate spiritual world of this group with his sincere heart and wise narrative, and writes about the happiness, pros and cons, love, desire, ambition, fantasy and depression of this special group.

7. Dang Yimin's Shiyang Xixia, China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Press.

In the three-dimensional picture of foreign war and civil war, military war and psychological war, the work tells people about the historical disaster of Xixia nationality and many secrets behind it. The works especially write some men and women with lofty aspirations and blood, praising the tragic heroes and shining humanity in the tragic history. The most dazzling thing here is the time when the number of troops was unified. This outstanding figure, who combines talents and talents, was placed in the chaotic chessboard of power and interests in Xixia and lived in the intricate chess game of the Three Kingdoms. Nothing can be achieved and changed. He can't return to heaven, and he can only die with Xixia, which is dying in the west. Deren's personal misfortune is inextricably intertwined with Xixia's misfortune, which makes people lament the fate connection between nature and man, and between times and man.

8. Zhao Benfu's Soilless Age, People's Literature Publishing House.

Shi Tuo, a cultural figure, didn't respond to his advocacy of local civilization, but Tianzhu, a migrant worker, made a mistake and "replaced the 36 1 city lawn with wheat seedlings", but caused a huge wave in Mucheng. This hit the nail on the head story is not so much a description of life facts as a deduction of life ideals. In the story of "Shi Tuo's Rebellion, Tianzhu's Mistake", the author Zhao Benfu shows an unusual meaning and idea in his works, which is to reveal the consequences of "no soil" and praise the efforts of "loving the soil".

Eight novels in 2009

1 Liu Zhenyun "One sentence is worth ten thousand sentences", Changjiang Literature and Art Publishing House.

This work is very colorful. Judging from the reading experience, it seems that the gap between friends and the bad blood between father and son was the crux of the difficulty in writing between people. Later, when I read impermanence and vagrancy by Yang Baishun and others, it seemed that people were writing their own destiny. Under careful consideration, there are reflections on rural nature, a survey of national character, and even a profile of human loneliness.

2. Roy King Gelsall, Chongqing Publishing House

With beautiful literary language and skillful novel writing, this work tells the story of Tibetan heroes that have been passed down to this day. In the interwoven narrative of two clues and two characters, the work tells the growth process and heroic achievements of King Gelsall and rapper Mei Chin. The works show superb literary narration in the aspects of epic and hero humanization, which embodies the current value and openness of "retelling myths" and makes the Tibetan national spirit carried by Tibetan epics deeply excavated and carried forward.

3. Mo Yan's Frog, Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House

As a typical figure, the work tells the personality variation of a rural female doctor, and then reveals the merits and demerits of implementing the family planning policy for decades. The "menstruation" in my later years is always in a reflection that is not without contradictions. Through such reflection and contradiction, it also profoundly reflects the contradiction between the times and history.

4. Gao Jianqun's Great Plains, Beijing October Literature and Art Publishing House.

The work tells all kinds of hardships and misfortunes experienced by three generations of an ordinary peasant family in Weihe Plain, Shaanxi Province, and the touching story of struggling to defend their dignity while surviving tenaciously. Through several representative figures, it is better to write big countries with small villagers, or even write modern history with family history, so that people can see the relationship between a person and a family, a family and a piece of land, a piece of land and a society, and a society and an era.

5. Fang Fang's Water of Time, Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House.

In the bumpy life experience of Yang Shuidi, a female artist of Han Opera, her works not only show her tenacity and stubbornness, but also show her willfulness and hatred. So with her, the emotional entanglement between love and hate is always changing, and the alternation of bitterness and joy is a never-ending life tragedy. There are many reasons, but the dominant one is the defect of personality. In this sense, the tragedy of her fate is also the tragedy of her personality.

6. Cao Zhenglu's "Asking the Boundless", People's Literature Publishing House

The works of people from all walks of life, such as Liu, Zhang, Ma, Mrs. Chen, Zhao and He Zigang, describe that in the process of reform and opening up and the development of market economy, all kinds of people not only show their own strength, but also fine-tune their positions, questioning people's souls in economic and social life, and how "capital" can hold people hostage because of its greedy and ruthless nature, making you surrender for no reason.

7. Liu Xinglong's Skywalker, People's Literature Publishing House

This work is a continuation of the story of the author's early novella Feng Qin. As always, the work faces the reality and chooses a social reality that has not changed much, that is, the living conditions of private teachers in mountainous areas and the various costs they pay for "becoming a full member". However, it is these three "positive changes" from primary schools in Ling Jie that make people see their hardships and difficulties, and also their greatness and kindness.

8. Su Tong's Riverside, People's Literature Publishing House.

In the narrative of the difficult life problems of the little hero Ku Liang Dong, and the numerous doubts and mysteries brought about by it, the works spy on the turbulent social life and all kinds of dangers and dilemmas caused to ordinary people from a unique perspective of a child. Being forbidden to "go ashore", he had to live in a boat and drift on the river. This abnormal gray memory and secret life experience show the youth turmoil and growth confusion of teenagers incisively and vividly, and also reveal the ruthlessness of society and politics, personal humility and tenacity of life, which makes people cry.
