“Northeast China in Literature” Depicted by Chi Zijian—Rereading Puppet Manchukuo, The Last Quarter of the Moon, and White Snow and Crow
Chi Zijian’s literary narrative of northeast China over a century essentially embodies a serious and concrete historical record of the Chinese nation. It also makes efforts to explore the profoundness and vitality of history, the presence of northeast China, and the culture and spiritual philosophy of the region. Undoubtedly, such narrative is self-perpetuating, just as is the historical process of northeast China. Puppet Manchukuo (Wei Manzhouguo), The Last Quarter of the Moon (E’erguna He You’an), and White Snow and Crow (Baixue Wuya) written by Chi Zijian are all important contemporary literary works worth “rereading” time and again.
