Features: Shu Ting's poetry is the most romantic in the entire "Obscure Poetry" movement, which may also be the reason for its significant influence on young readers. At the same time, she consciously incorporates some modernist techniques into her lyrical style. For example, she frequently uses symbolism to condense imagery with personalized sensations, and employs metaphorical language to create the spiritual realm of the poem. Shu Ting's exploration of poetic art is more evident, creating unique temporal and spatial experiences through sensory associations; she can hear the colors of "melody," see the wandering and lingering of melody, and hear echoes in her soul. The use of synesthesia makes the poetry richer in multi-layered meanings and more vivid in individualistic charm. In summary, in Shu Ting's poetry, subjective symbols are abundant, and the combination of imagery varies arbitrarily with the changes in the poet's perception. This is not only an expansion of the linguistic space of the poem but also a highlighting of the strong sense of self in the poet's soul. This book collects some of Shu Ting's poems, allowing readers to appreciate Shu Ting's poetry and Shu Ting herself.
