Features: This collection, personally compiled and arranged by the author in chronological order, spans over one million words and includes all of the author's significant works, such as Shanghai Memories, The Peony, and A Woman in Lactation. In the past two years, Bi Feiyu has become a favorite among film and television directors. After the television drama The Peony gained nationwide popularity, renowned director Yang Yang and actress Song Jia spotted the short story A Woman in Lactation, which won the inaugural Lu Xun Literature Prize, and adapted it into a film. Director Ye Daying filmed the movie Wang Zhuang on Earth, based on the short story of the same name. Meanwhile, the influential middle-grade novel Corn, which caused a great stir in the literary world, also attracted the attention of several prominent figures in the film and television industry. It seems only natural to say that Bi Feiyu has a special connection with film and television. However, like most accomplished writers who have achieved significant success in their creative endeavors, Bi Feiyu does not wish for his prominence in film and television to overshadow the overall evaluation of his literary value. The four-volume collection, in a sense, has become a remedy for him to "set things right." In the collection, we can see that as a writer, Bi Feiyu exhibits an astonishing versatility in his creative style. Early on, Bi Feiyu made his debut in the literary world with a certain avant-garde attitude. Having once studied philosophy on his own, he began interpreting the world with a boundless and unrestrained literary form and an insatiable metaphysical interest. However, soon after, his focus shifted from constructing his spiritual edifice to observing the daily lives of ordinary people and exploring their inner worlds. From Island to Narrative and then to A Good Story and Lin Hong's Holiday, we see a gradually calmer, more composed, and wiser Bi Feiyu. From a narrator completely uninterested in stories to a skilled storyteller, Bi Feiyu has completed his transformation. Through Bi Feiyu's Collection, we can see that a good writer always gets closer to the softer parts of the human heart through the continuous evolution of their personal creative style.
