The story begins in Asakawa, a city full of tall camphor trees. Everything in Asakawa seems to be extraordinarily calm and slow, with a unique sleepy mood in summer. Chang Xia, who attended Asakawa Middle School in Murakami Prefecture, met Fu Xiaosi and Lu Zhiang at school. Especially after Chang Xia knew that Fu Xiaosi was his favorite painter and priest, she gradually fell in love with Fu Xiaosi. In high school life, Xiao Si became a famous illustrator because she participated in the Jinchuan Art Competition. Optimistic and cheerful Lu Zhiang grew up quickly after her mother died. And Chang Xia also met the mysterious placement students in the class and became good friends.

Three years later, everyone separated because of graduation. Chang Xia and Xiao Si went to the Central Academy of Fine Arts for further study, and Lu Zhiang went to Japan to study. I met my boyfriend Qingtian, gave up my feelings for my dream and went to Beijing alone. Since then, everyone's fate has been very different, and the door of the adult world has been opened, and the complexity has been shown to everyone bit by bit. After the release of Xiao Si's new collection of paintings, the popularity was in full swing. Chang Xia became Xiao Si's assistant and girlfriend, while Qi Qi unexpectedly became a singer in college and became a famous youth idol after releasing her first album. I have been working hard for singing, and I have been living very hard in Beijing, but I have never given up my dream of singing. At this time, she met a simple boy bridge from Yongning in a convenience store.

In every corner of the world, these young people who once had dreams are struggling. Just when everyone was trapped by the rapid arrival of material desires and couldn't see the future clearly, they didn't know that with the occurrence of various events, greater adversity almost completely reversed and destroyed everyone's life-Fu Xiaosi's plagiarism dispute, Lu Zhiang's imprisonment, Cheng Qiqi's betrayal, Chang Xia's departure, Duan Qiao's accident ... They drifted with the tide because they were contaminated with the secular, they were destroyed by beautiful friendship, and they were destroyed by deep friendship and friendship more precious than love. ?

In the postscript, Jing M.Guo said that he began to write "Summer Without Solstice" in June 2004, and didn't finish it until the end of 65438+ the following year 10. During this period, he forgot his original idea of writing this novel, and all his ideas were overturned. Jing M.Guo said that no novel can make him sad.

But when he finished reading the last chapter of Summer Solstice, he wiped the tears from his eyes. ? [4]?

character introduction

edit

Chang Xia: The hero of the story, a simple and kind girl, comes from Mori County. Chang Xia, who graduated from junior high school, was admitted to Asakawa Middle School with excellent results. During her three years in high school, she met Fu Xiaosi, Lu Zhiang and others and became friends with them. After graduation, Chang Xia, who loves painting, entered the Academy of Fine Arts with a small company and became a couple. Finally, Chang Xia left Fu Xiaosi, which was in the midst of a public opinion storm, because July 7th claimed that she was pregnant with Fu Xiaosi's child. After returning to Mori County, Chang Xia is about to get married in an ordinary life.

Fu Xiaosi: He is gentle, but he cherishes friendship more. He doesn't like talking or laughing. He always lives alone in his own world, and his eyes are foggy all year round. Small companies have excellent academic performance and will always be a clean child in the eyes of teachers. At the same time, Xiao Si, who is also a painting genius, quickly became famous after publishing several paintings under the pseudonym of "Pastor". However, due to the conspiracy of his competitors, he was depressed and even autistic. At the end of the story, after losing Chang Xia and Lu Zhiang, Xiao Si released an album "Angel" and announced its closure.

Lu Zhiang: Fu Xiaosi has been a good friend since childhood. He is outgoing and likes to drink coke. He is like those lonely leading men in youth movies. He always wears undeveloped clothes, unbuttons his school uniform, exposes his white shirt with his chest open, and runs around the school with his shoulder bag on his back. After her mother died, Lu Zhiang, who grew up overnight, became tough and quiet, and later went to Waseda University to study. At the end of the story, Lu Zhiang seriously injured Fu Xiaosi's opponent at the press conference and was sentenced to life imprisonment.

Meet: Chang Xia's best friend. She has a stubborn personality and a rough life experience. She is a girl who has her own opinions since she was a child. In high school, she transferred to Chang Xia's class and became Chang Xia's roommate. Later, she dropped out of school and went to Beijing to pursue her dreams. I met a beautiful song, but no one ever appreciated it. In a singing contest, I lost my chance to debut because of the July 7th trip, so I chose to return to Asakawa.

Cheng Qiqi: Chang Xia's junior high school classmate and friend. Qiqi is good at communication and gifted. Became a singer and set foot in the entertainment circle, and spared no expense to sweep away all those who threatened her for fame and fortune. She began to secretly love Fu Xiaosi from high school, and betrayed Chang Xia and others for this relationship.

Broken bridge: excellent student in architecture, with straight nose and two dimples. Duan Qiao fell in love with him while working in a convenience store, and he even had the opportunity to give up studying abroad.

Qingtian: I met my first love and sang in a bar on weekdays. Qingtian chose to respect the meeting, let her leave herself to pursue her dreams in Beijing, and accepted her after her failure. ? [5]?

Theme of the work

As a story that lasted for ten years, Summer on the Solstice became long and subtle in Jing M.Guo's works. In the alternation of spring, summer, autumn and winter, the fantastic chapters in the story have changed from unforgettable memory pictures to another picture, which is deeply imprinted on the hero of the novel. The book revolves around ten-year friendship, growth and other sensitive adolescent themes, with the deep and forbearing friendship between two boys, Fu Xiaosi and Lu Zhiang, and the tortuous and bitter friendship between Chang Xia and Cheng Qiqi as clues. The two main lines are intertwined, calling for readers' * * *. ? [6]?

On the other hand, this novel is Jing M.Guo's self-criticism. Fu Xiaosi, the protagonist, basically follows the path of success of the beautified version of Jing M.Guo. From a typical top student, Gao Fushuai, I was successfully admitted to a key university, and then successfully became a star of great concern. The biggest setback in his life is also the climax turning point of this book, which is no longer the abortion in Jing M.Guo's other novels. For the first time, it has a distinct realistic dimension, that is, Fu Xiaosi was "framed" for copying another painter's paintings and was lashed by public opinion. This drama conflict is obviously copied by the author in response to how many flowers fall in a dream. It can be said that Summer Solstice is Jing M.Guo's self-healing work in the face of the storm of public opinion. In the plagiarism incident, Fu Xiaosi was innocent, but he was persecuted by the whole world: unscrupulous reporters took it out of context and framed him for plagiarism; Feng Xiaoyi, an unknown painter, became famous through this incident, and even went out of his way to pay attention to Xiao Si's new work when it was released. ?

Artistic feature

Cover of Summer Solstice Edition (three)

Jing M.Guo often uses ups and downs to entangle friendship, love and affection, to show the growth process and the vicissitudes of fate. Although there are many problems in character setting and plot arrangement, such as Lu Zhiang's imprisonment, he can make the story move towards the established goal through mandatory narration. He doesn't care about the story itself, but only wants to express his thoughts on growth and youth through the story. At the same time, he played down the plot in the book, created an atmosphere, and made Asakawa a paradise on earth in this article, so as to keep Chang Xia's memory of the city where camphor trees are connected end to end, and the beautiful high school life in her memory, which is in sharp contrast with the muddy world after entering the society. ? [8]?

Besides, I have to point out that Jing M.Guo didn't grasp the structure of this novel well: Li Yanran was lost in the story and didn't even say a few words. On the contrary, Qingtian suddenly appeared at the end, and the sudden "disappearance" and "appearance" of the early figures have to be said to be a pity. On the one hand, the author depicts a character in all directions; On the one hand, the existence of this person will affect the development and expression of the work and make it quit the stage. Moreover, there are obviously too many ideal elements in the novel, and most of the protagonists, Fu Xiaosi and Lu Zhiang, are from noble families and rich families. They pursue an ideal life, and then realize the process from growth to maturity through disillusionment. ? [8]?

Evaluation of works

edit

In the summer before the solstice, Xiao Si once again gave us a sad ending. The only difference is that his writing has undergone new changes, becoming quiet and thorough, and combining freehand lyricism with narration. In the first half of the story, we have felt the beauty of youth, subtle details and ubiquitous fun countless times. And his well-known grandstanding is more reflected in Summer Solstice. Whether it is the rendering of the campus in the opening part or the embodiment of ambiguity between boys and girls, it is like trembling wings, clearly cast in our pupils. The whole story is dominated by two rhythms: one is slow and the other is fast. Under such a strong gap, highlighting the tragedy of the characters seems to be one of the biggest features of the whole work. -writer Luo Luo? [4]?

From beginning to end, the summer solstice is full of adolescent love agitation, which makes people feel warm. -Golden Eagle Entertainment? [9]?
