<롼마이(軟埋)> 소고

Abstract

<Soft Buried(軟埋)> is a fairly readable novel. From the compact storyline, the remarkable way of narration, to the explosive sanction and theme consciousness of Land reform, to the attitude of history, it constantly presents the reader with concrete and complex life scenes and asks questions. The meticulousness and organic relevance of letters, descriptions, composition and so on definitely bring this work closer to curiosity and tension and aroused a different kind of interest in reading. But the shock and coolness of the Soft Buried incident overwhelms the entire atmosphere above all else. It is apparently a heroic act to control their own destiny and protect their dignity beyond the fear of looming persecution. Moreover, the voluntary participation of servants in the Soft Buried shows that the relationship between landlords and servants was a very specific and complex one that could never be reverted to the simple relationship between the exploiting class and the exploited class <Soft Buried(軟埋)> does not recognize one class, a particular position, as absolute truth, and does not exclude or attack others. <Soft Buried(軟埋)>, with a personalized perspective, shows the human form of life in the gaps of history, shows history as an attitude of empathy and understanding, and shows that each has its own choice. So the political criticism of <Soft Buried(軟埋)>, even if you understand the Chinese socialist literary tradition, is reckless and meaningless.
