Me and Ditan, Besieged City

In a blink of an eye, you have been away for ten years.

On the last day of 20 10, I saw the news of Shi Tiesheng's death and felt heavy. At that time, I just arrived in another country with a 6-year-old child and a 3-year-old child, facing all the difficulties, confusion and anxiety of new immigrants. With his departure, I seem to have lost a close friend and a guiding light. But from the bottom of my heart, I also feel comfort for him to get rid of his illness.

During that time, immersed in his memories, I reread many of his works. Why do you only have a soft spot for Shi Tiesheng? Don't other writers have such roles? I don't know, maybe his disability gave him a different perspective and depth. His expression of life is very suitable for my feeling of being down and out for half my life. Although I am not ill, I can never be proud of my situation.

Many years ago, when I first read his Me and Ditan, I remembered the name and paid attention to his life and dynamics. Other writers, I only stay at the level of recognizing him and won't worry me. Only Shi Tiesheng, his noble personality and broken body, let me have an idolized desire. I feel his pain, look up to his height and follow his thoughts. Simple language contains philosophical thinking, showing an open-minded attitude towards life and a valuable uncompromising attitude.

He said that his occupation was illness, and even writing was the result of illness. Over the years, he has endured the pain that ordinary people can't understand with extraordinary perseverance, and his words are meticulous. So death has never been a taboo topic between him and his wife, just like talking about a relative and friend. "Death is something you don't have to rush for success. Death is an inevitable festival. "

Finally, his festival came. 201165438+1October 4th, Shi Tiesheng's memorial service was held in Beijing 798, named "The Last Meeting with Tiesheng". That day happened to be Shi Tiesheng's 60th birthday. Chen Ximi (Mrs. Shi Tiesheng) rejected wreaths and elegiac couplets. "I hope everyone dresses brightly and looks bright. Do not refuse flowers and plaques with advanced colors. "

When Chen Ximi, Shi Tiesheng's wife, said, "Tiesheng used to be in poor health and tired easily, and she always used the excuse of getting together with friends early. He won't be tired at this party. He will accompany us from beginning to end?

Just as Tie Ning said: Tie Sheng is a true believer, a writer who truly adheres to a high spirit, honest, calm, honest and dignified. He has been in a wheelchair for so many years, but he can see higher than many people who can stand; He can't walk far for so many years, but he has a broader heart than many vagrants. In this era of "greatness", Tie Sheng is also worthy of such an evaluation as "great life"

Seeing the headlines of People's Daily's overseas website, I realized that Mr. Qian Zhongshu had left us for 22 years. I remember hearing the news of my husband's death 22 years ago, and a friend who worked in Africa called. At that time, communication was underdeveloped, especially in Africa. My friend was in a very unstable state at that time, so it was easy to find the phone and get through. I don't have time to say hello to him. The first sentence is "Mr. Qian Zhongshu passed away", and the sad mood is "bereavement".

To put it bluntly, I haven't read any of the master's masterpieces except the novel Fortress Besieged. The humorous and ironic language and vivid characterization made me laugh, and the TV series Fortress Besieged was also very successful, which made me fondle this novel and read it several times.

Later, I also went abroad, experienced foreign life and all kinds of people, and felt that this book was a peep show, lifelike, reflecting ignorance of the world and all kinds of worldly wisdom. A few years ago, in the library of this small village where I live, I found a foreign version of Qian Zhongshu's collection of novels "Missing", which is the second book I have read.

I am deeply ashamed that I have only read two of his novels, which are the by-products that he most disdains to flaunt. The best way to pay tribute to the masters is to read more of their works and feel their cultural ideals and broad humanistic vision.
