Literary achievements

Gu Cheng is a representative figure of China's misty poetry school in the new period, and is known as a "fairy tale poet" who sees the world with a childlike innocence. Vague poetry, which rose in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was an important part of the exciting ideological and literary "liberation" trend at that time, and it was also the starting point of the new poetry movement in 1980s.

1975, he completed his masterpiece "Fantasia for Life" with prodigy-like talent, and established his own creative style. 1984 wrote "ode to the world", which is introspective and calm in style. Gu Cheng's poems such as Generation and Arc have become "misty poems" repeatedly mentioned in the debate on misty poems.

From 1987 to 1993, he wrote the only autobiographical novel Ying Er. His poems often create a fairy tale world far away from the world with jumping short sentences, blurred colors and mumbling monologues.

In the early 1980s, Gu Cheng's self changed from attachment to nature to attachment to culture. I have written works with strong speculative color and social consciousness, such as I am a wayward child, a generation, and the tomb of the Red Guards. Gu Cheng wrote many poems dedicated to Xie Ye. In these poems, there are fantastic ideas beyond reality, and they strive to pursue a simple and isolated world.
