they are mysterious, beautiful, attractive and unpredictable. Something bright or dark shows us a different picture.
As the story unfolds, the world in this small teahouse is bleak, which is the epitome of the real society, and the interlocking fate shows the living state and mental state of the characters.
Behind these words, it seems that the author is just above this small tea house, looking at everyone with compassion and concern: life is short, and come and sit in the novel.
At first glance, this "Temporary Sitting" seems to be a story about eroticism between men and women, but in fact, there is almost no love between men and women in "Temporary Sitting". It is more a story between this group of women. These trivial things in their lives and their extended social relations are intertwined, forming a small social group and a small world. The inner world of women.
Sitting by the window, sipping tea, I can see in my mind the experiences and parting of each character in the book. As Mr. Jia Pingwa said, these dozens of characters have painted a picture of "all beings", and the characters in it are very similar to the "Grand View Garden" in a Dream of Red Mansions, representing all kinds of beings. Between these ambiguous characters in the book, there is actually Mr. Jia Pingwa's profound understanding of life.
In the novel, every character has a story, and every story has a love-hate relationship. These are not fictitious stories fabricated by Jia Pingwa, but stories based on real people.
In p>1992, when Jia Pingwa was at the bottom of his life, he sent away his friend Lu Yao who suffered from liver cancer, and he was experiencing the double blow of losing his friend and failing his marriage.
at that time, he suffered from the same liver disease as Lu Yao because he stayed up all the year round writing, and his physical pain and life were not smooth, which made it difficult for Jia Pingwa to breathe.
In such a life situation, Jia Pingwa thought about his friend Lu Yao's advice on his deathbed. Only with good health can he have more energy to create better works.
During the years when he was ill, Jia Pingwa wrote freely. He often went to the teahouse to sit, drink tea and chat, so that when he was drinking tea in the teahouse, he met the proprietress of the teahouse and a dozen beautiful women with different experiences.
These 12 sexy and charming women, all kinds of amorous feelings, dress up beautifully every day, wander among men in different roles, in order to exchange some benefits for themselves. They do not hesitate to make dirty deals with their bodies and emotions.
However, the good times didn't last long. With the downfall of the "Big Tiger" in Xi 'an, the 12 gorgeous girlfriends could no longer gather in the tea house to continue their "transaction". Everyone left the tea cool, and everyone left the building empty. The tragic fate of 12 women also came one after another.
So Jia Pingwa recorded the stories of these 12 amorous women, and after two years, he carefully revised them four times, and finally wrote this book, named "Temporary Sitting".
I like reading Mr. Pingwa's books. For Mr. Pingwa, although everyone has always praised him differently, I personally feel that every time I read his books, I have a profound understanding of life.
Then, as you know, why is this book called Sitting for a while? The temporary sitting in the tea house in the western capital is the main scene of the novel's characters' activities and plots, and it has also become the most direct explanation of the novel's name "temporary sitting", but "temporary sitting" clearly contains more life connotations and rich implications that Mr. Wang wants to express. Mr. Wang explained that life is a "temporary sitting" and everyone comes to the world as a "temporary sitting". The novel is about the society and the meaning of people's living.
In his twilight years, Mr. Pingwa used this book "Sitting for a while" to tell us what is most worth cherishing in life, that is, true colors and initial intentions, tranquility and contentment, things outside the body, which will not bring death with him, while greedy desires can only bring us shocking and lingering scars.
it is said in "sitting temporarily" that life is a sitting temporarily, and everyone comes into the world as a sitting temporarily. Man's life seems long, but it's really too short, as if he just sat on earth for a while and left. Sir, this book can be said to have exhausted the mystery of fate!
