Every era has its tears.
When we open the history textbook, the lives of countless people are condensed into one or two sentences.
But for those who are truly in it, their scars and pain are often just a speck of dust from history.
Humans are always like this. When they are sentimental, they will be moved to tears by the slightest thing.
But when we become rational, looking at the tragedy and suffering of millions of people in the historical picture scroll, we can only sigh that the Yangtze River flows eastward.
Special period.
In the eyes of young people in later generations who have not experienced it, it is just a part of history, just like the wheel occasionally turning a corner while moving in a straight line.
But for those who have experienced it, they often have scars that are difficult to let go of for the rest of their lives.
so……
When the latest issue of "People's Literature" was released, countless intellectuals who had just been rehabilitated and returned to their jobs were all stunned when they saw the article "Scars".
In the capital, a certain ministry compound.
An elderly man in his sixties who had just resumed his leadership position bought a newly published copy of "People's Literature" while at work, intending to read it carefully when he was bored at work.
But as soon as I sat down in the office and opened the first article "Scars", I was completely... deeply immersed in it.
Scars, scars!
All the scars on his body were revealed at once.
However, he was different from the protagonist in the story. After he was rehabilitated, he found that all his children had passed away for various reasons.
Now he is alone and even though he has survived the most difficult times, he seems to have lost all his spiritual sustenance.
He still remembers how he cried with joy when he first learned that he had been rehabilitated.
But after returning to the capital, when he learned from the director of the street office that all his children had died, he cried so madly again.
A special turbulence and an indescribable sense of fate.
After reading the novel "Scars", it completely ignited his heart.
"Great! This article "Scars" is so well written. During this special period, so many people were separated from their loved ones, and so many people fell into lifelong regrets!
This article "Scars" really touched my heart. This is not just my tragedy, but the tragedy of an era..."
After putting down "People's Literature", the old man no longer wanted to read other articles or novels.
He couldn't calm down for a long time, and replayed in his mind all the tragedies and pains he had experienced in the past ten years.
Then he immediately made up his mind, took out the manuscript paper and pen, and with the tip of the pen rustling across the paper, he used every word to recreate the past ten years that had passed.
…
The above scenes not only happened to senior cadres in the ministerial compounds, but also to many intellectuals who were still in labor camps and at the grassroots level in rural areas.
After ten years of holding it in, someone finally expressed it through a novel. It really gave voice to their group!
In particular, when they found out that the author of the novel "Scars" was the great poet Haizi who wrote "A Generation", they became Haizi's loyal fans.
At the grassroots level, a copy of People's Literature is often bought by everyone pooling their money together. After we go back, you read it first and then I read it. Whoever has time can read it.
Often, papers are turned over until they become wrinkled and yellowed, and some good articles will be turned over countless times.
In this issue of "People's Literature", the novel "Scars" alone is almost torn apart.
Everyone was outraged at the protagonist's cold-bloodedness in drawing a line between himself and his mother, but at the end they all felt sad that although the protagonist regretted it, his mother had already passed away, and it seemed that everything was irreparable.
The cracks of the times were completely solidified there, becoming a permanent scar on an individual.
People often say that there are ten thousand Hamlets in the eyes of ten thousand people. A novel often gives different insights when viewed and thought about from different perspectives.
The same is true for "Scars". People with different experiences can see their own shadows in the different characters after watching "Scars".
Some people think that they are the protagonist who breaks up with his mother, while others think that they are the mother who is defeated and heartbroken.
But in the end, there is no doubt that "Scars" became popular and successful. Even on the first day of its release, excited book fans in Beijing ran to the editorial office of "People's Literature" magazine.
The editor-in-chief Zhang Guangnian was stunned. Since the resumption of publication of "People's Literature", many manuscripts have been published in it, and there are also many wonderful and interesting novels.
But no novel has ever created such a sensation as quickly as "Scars".
"Where is Haizi? Is Haizi in the editorial department? The book Scars he wrote is so good. We want to meet Haizi."
"Editors, are the author of "Scars" Haizi, the great poet who wrote "Facing the Sea, Spring Blossoms" and "A Generation" really the same person?"
"Editors of People's Literature, you have such a good vision. This article Scars is so well written. I was so moved after reading it. I really want to meet Haizi in person!"
"Can I write to Haizi? Could your editorial department please give me Haizi's mailing address? I have a lot to say to Haizi."
…
Unlike poems which are short and concise, "Scars", which is only several thousand words long, can describe and explain content, allowing readers to have a deeper understanding of Haizi.
