Product Description

[Book Introduction] "Wu Liang as Night" is a collection of Mai Shujian's seven years of novels. In the collection, the author challenges the novella for the first time, combining reality and fiction, writing propositions such as human nature, death, and destiny. The novella "Slowly Long Night" presents an alternative Hong Kong story with the night and gloom of the city. The novel revolves around Chen Songxiu and Shi Shanyuan who came to Hong Kong illegally. They are far away from the group, serving as taxi drivers and night watch taxi drivers, living a life with death. The author combines Hong Kong history, urban legends, observations of human nature and other themes to build a ghostly world contrasted with the real world, creating a unique and mysterious perspective. Gong Wanhui cross-regional promotion Malaysian writer Gong Wanhui wrote the recommended preface for "Wu Liang as Night" and clicked on the book "to shape a very realistic and charming little figure". He read and understood Hong Kong in the novel with the eyes of an outsider: "We follow the night The footsteps of the readers walked into the scene of Hong Kong in the 1980s, or, to be more precise, it was the dark night of the city where the old days were not as busy as today. Those traffickers, pawns and nightclub girls who are against the light, have many desires, in fact, there are also Sisi feelings and love. I finally understand that like light like shadow, some people have ghosts, "Human cities and ghost cities overlap...but this is a complete city." In the dark night of life that dare not face alone, between half asleep and half awake, what is staring at you in the dark? 【About the Author】 Mai Shujian Bachelor of Arts and Master of Philosophy, Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Hong Kong Baptist University.
