Features: Some alternative coming-of-age narratives, recording the hidden sensitivity and melancholy in the hearts of every teenager who resists growing up. It's like the sparkling and fragile dewdrops on the grass after rain; like the empty playground filled with heartache and waiting; like the empty train without a destination, filled with loneliness. These sensitive and melancholic children write their own stories and feelings. They are talented yet unconventional, innocent and kind yet rebellious and violent, imaginative yet cold and self-isolated. They call themselves "the rotten children of this era." Their words are dreamlike, mysterious, and enigmatic, filled with the desolate beauty of a post-apocalyptic world. They interpret a different kind of purity belonging to this era through a negative.
