Construction and Reflection on the Spiritual Signs of Contemporary Chinese Society——Comments on AI Wei's Novel In The Mirror
AI Wei's novel In the Mirror adopts symmetrical aesthetics and constructs reality and history,love and desire,degradation and redemption,entry into the world and coming out of the world,gratitude and hatred as the two poles of human nature.It explores deep and broad metaphors of human nature in the vast narrative space and time,takes love as the main line to form a diversified and complex narrative theme,and forms a three-dimensional structure of human nature and a pattern of degradation and redemption.The narrative scene of the novel is set in Hangzhou in the real world,but it constructs a metaphorical spiritual world with the help of mirror narrative,which fully expands the mirror observation function of the novel to the real life.The broadness of the narrative and the ambiguity and metaphor of the theme are prominent features of In the Mirror,and also the latest achievements of AI Wei's novel creation.
