Features: The Taiwanese author Zhang Jiahua is a quirky uncle, and the charm of his quirky fairy tales lies in their ability to make you laugh uncontrollably. In his strange fairy tales, he incorporates many parodies, puns, and wordplay. The storytelling is abrupt and exaggerated, and the characters are often deformed to an extreme, often creating hilarious effects. The story he tells about "Black Snow White" clearly originates from "Snow White," but he claims that "Black Snow White" has nothing to do with "Snow White." The entire book is mostly black, only to suddenly include a slogan advocating for smoking cessation by a Black little girl. There's also the story of "The Fallen Father Chases the Sun," which is clearly a parody of the myth "Chao Fu Chases the Sun." The quirky uncle even creates a "Fallen Father" who looks "fallen" from childhood to adulthood. He mistakenly takes the sun for a salted egg and chases it, only for the story to be continued for three episodes! A hundred years after "Alice in Wonderland" was published, a fairy tale with the same theme of a little girl taking a nap was born. Its title differs from the original by only one character—it's called "Alice in Wonderland of 'Fresh'."
How fresh can a book about the "fresh" wonderland be? Judging by the expiration date marked on the book, it should be fine to keep for a year or two! The book describes Alice sleeping on a hammock made of one hundred sausages, accidentally getting hit hard by a falling apple. Alice jumps up but doesn't notice gravity, only to find herself landing in a bird's nest on a branch.
Alice is surprised—she never expected her jumping ability to be so high! So, Alice gets an idea and assumes a diving pose, deciding to jump directly from the bird's nest into the dream. Alice jumps. Bang! She hits the entrance to the dream, giving her a big bump on her head.
What's going on? It turns out that dreams can't be forced—there's a thirty-dollar entrance fee. Alice has to take out the spare money she was going to spend on popcorn and buy the ticket, feeling both a headache and a pang of regret as she enters the dream.
As for what's new in the "fresh" wonderland of the dream, what fresh things does Alice encounter? Due to space constraints, I won't elaborate here. Those interested can buy the book themselves.
People with poor stomachs can also read this book while using the toilet and eat it too. This "Alice in Wonderland of 'Fresh'" has been approved by the Health Bureau. It's said that eating it is even more effective than taking laxatives. Why not give it a try?
