"The Moment of the Stars" is a novel about the exploration of "identity". The author describes the hard life of a girl named Macabella who immigrated from a poor area to Rio de Janeiro. She sees the image of the narrator in the mirror, and the narrator appears in the novel in the first person, talking about their loneliness. After she broke up with her boyfriend, she took a selfie in the mirror and covered her lips with lipstick, as if she had found her dream identity: becoming a shining superstar. After getting a good omen from the tarot card reader, an ironic and tragic scene appeared: she was knocked down by a luxury Mercedes driven by a blond man. When he was dying, the "star moment" in the hallucination finally appeared, and all the humbleness sublimated into brilliance.
I have been pushing this book before and I still struggle with "Legal Ambition". Law is very good at writing recommendations, and I use gossip to understand the life of the federal court and the most elite students in the United States. Although there are many professional terms, it is definitely popular The books and stories are not as good as the classic American dramas such as The Good Wife, but they are also a point of interest. Unfortunately, the ending is too ideal. If you are interested in law and elite life, you can watch it.
Going back to the moment of the stars, first of all, the story is very, very short, and it should take less than an hour to finish. The heroine is poor, humble, ignorant and unaware of her situation, just like a dog who doesn¡¯t know that he is a dog. In terms of conception and writing, the whole story is in the first person, and the narrator has a stronger sense of presence than the protagonist and supporting roles combined.
?The only person who can be called a bad guy is the heroine's ex-boyfriend. When they broke up, he wanted to treat the heroine a little better, saying:
"You, Macabea, are a hair in soup. People don't want to eat it. Forgive me if I hurt you, but I'm telling the truth. Are you hurt?"
The whole book is full of hurtful details, but the heroine is always ignorant. Her only excitement is when the fortune teller tells her a prophecy that a blond foreigner will fall in love with her.
She fell in love with someone for the first time at the moment she heard the prophecy.
The writing style of the long comments of this book is very good, but because there is still a big gap with the author's writing style, I will not release it. Let me put some short comments:
1. The best novella I have read in half a year. She was writing fiction almost the way Bishop used to write poetry. Such writing is the pure ashes of the burning body of the author.
2. I finished reading this novel on the subway from the East Fifth Ring Road to the North Fifth Ring Road. This is the most beautiful and coolest novel I have read in a while. I deliberately avoid the interference of theory, and I don¡¯t want to see the heroine as a person who has been insulted and damaged, because I think she has become the ultimate loneliness of human beings. The loneliest person in the world and the person who can best express my inner loneliness. I even wanted to write a letter to the heroine.
3. "Don't try to prove the existence of the most true thing, but believe it, cry and believe it" The strange omniscient perspective of the person in the mirror, the dazzling and highly poetic description completely get rid of the emotional addiction and high sensitivity of female writers The fateful writing of the talented stylist is indeed a work that requires 'crying to believe'. Lispector is perhaps the greatest female writer.
4. It is recommended to watch. How to say. I think fiction should have a new definition among the general public. If this essay is submitted to Douban, the reader judges will probably score below five points. No plot. no story. Nothing. But there are emotions, or like waterfalls, or like rivers. Full of emotions.
2. "Diary of a Bad Boy"
Introduction:
In a city occupied by foreign troops, due to food shortages, people's lives are difficult and difficult. A young woman had to take her twin sons to seek refuge with her mother who lived in the countryside. This "grandmother" is not only illiterate, dirty, stingy, vicious, and even a murderer. The two brothers grew up in a difficult environment. In order to make themselves stronger, the two practiced their survival skills by beating and scolding each other, going on hunger strikes and other methods every day. They carefully recorded the events of each day in a large notebook. As the diary was opened page by page, a cruel nightmare fable gradually appeared.
Those who write about suffering have recently read "The Diary of a Bad Boy". This book is exactly the opposite of the star hour. There are no other narrators, only the protagonist's self-report and diary. The writing is poor and without any embellishments. I feel, but they are the evil side.
In terms of the pleasure of reading, Diary of an Evil Child is actually better. After all, the story is very strong, and there are countless serious plots. It is possible to violate the bottom line of human beings. The two protagonists are actually very similar to the biggest bosses in many novels. For example, genius, ruthless, cruel, and has its own set of principles. If it is placed in a normal social background, it can actually arouse readers' admiration based on the characters in the novel, but in war, all evils are intertwined. Together, we can't help but pray for the goodness in human nature.
This book is considered a bestseller among literary books, and it will be easier to read.??The Diary of an Evil Child is the first part of the trilogy, and it is very short and can be read quickly. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
