Xiao Hong: A Flower Blooming in the Mire
Abstract
Xiao Hong is one of the four most talented women of the Republic of China in the modern era, and is known as “the
goddess of literature” of the 1930s. Xiao Hong can be said to be a female writer with a unique artistic style at that time. In terms
of literary creation, her works contain a mixture of sad and happy emotional tone as well as a rigid and soft language style. Xiao
Hong’s writing is fresh and natural because she believed in beauty even though she was traumatized. Xiao Hong’s works are mostly
self-referential, and her way of writing is unique in that she does not write in the usual way of thinking, but describes everything
she is familiar with in an extremely natural and unfamiliar language. She refuses to be mediocre and always stands alone. With her
profound understanding of world affairs, she has created a moving flower in the mud of the poor feudal north.
