Features: In the remote highland town of Kunyang, there is a street called Zimen Street. A deformed boy lives peacefully on this street. The people around remember him because of his innocence and deformity. Through the circumstances of this boy, human nature, love, and hatred are displayed. The story begins with Qiu Zi. People share their own lives, yet in their memories, there are always shadows of Qiu Zi and the Zimen Archway. Zimen Street is home to local long-term residents, migrant workers, former heroes, and European tourists. Everyone seems to want to tell a wild history of Zimen Street, yet they also seem to constantly ponder within this wild history.
In terms of structure, the author has made a completely new attempt. The book consists of 9 chapters, each seemingly independent, with no difficulty in reading a single chapter. Each chapter has its own theme and plot. However, the entire book revolves around the original stories of Zimen Street, focusing on the emotions of Qiu Zi, Feige, and Cao Nao, exploring modern society's pulse through various characters. The language of the novel tends toward a traditional style but incorporates elements of avant-garde literature. It is both joyful and profound, bringing readers a wave of reading pleasure and quickly immersing them in thought.
Human nature is the eternal theme. The author's original intention is to explore the essential aspects of human nature.
