Chapter 176: Hahaha......
At the end of the plot of the Lust chapter,
It's just that Sena's roommate Belinda buried Senna.
This is the end of the chapter of lust.
Carol sat in her office,
After reading the chapter of lust again, I paused for a long time without moving.
The lust chapter is far less depressing than the gluttony chapter,
On the contrary, the author used a lot of cold and calm narration, and told a very calm story in a straightforward manner.
It's clearly written in the chapter of lust, but some of the passages have a sense of holiness.
And after reading the whole article, the calm mood faded, and the depression gradually spread,
More enduring than the gluttony chapter.
Carol felt that she would probably not be able to forget the senile, sick low-level prostitute Senash described in the erotic chapter for a long time.
Because some details are unconscious when you look at them, and after reading them, you feel even more depressed.
Maybe when I think about it again, my heart will be pricked again, and my heart will be sad.
Like what
Is it true that a young man who has a relationship with Senna, who comes for the sake of pure desire and infatuation, and is ashamed of his own desires?
There is no mention of the young man's identity, name, story,
What came out of the young man's mouth was more of a description of what Senna looked like at different times, and there was little mention of himself.
Some of the ways he described Senna were when he saw her, and some were fantasies he had about when she imagined her.
Could the young man also be Senna's fantasy?
The author has not written about this in the whole article now.
But there are a lot of details, such as how Sena was already weak and seriously ill at the time, how could she have a relationship with such a young man again?
Also, when the young man appears and leaves, there are several descriptions of sunlight coming in through the window.
Sunlight is warm, bright, isn't it also a metaphor?
And more importantly,
Just as the plot is developing, Senna's roommate Belinda also changed several male partners in a row,
There's a small businessman, there's a lawyer who doesn't make much money, there's a bachelor who is also at the bottom of the ghetto,
These people's attitudes towards Belinda, a prostitute, are also quite interesting.
When the little merchant came, he wore a coat instead of underwear, hugged Belinda all the way into the room, and gave Belinda a gift that looked expensive but was actually cheap.
The lawyer arrived in a suit and waited quietly for Belinda to take a shower before entering the room with Belinda, but this lawyer likes to be sadistic, and every time Belinda needs to charge some more money before she is willing to receive her.
And the single is much more direct, when he saw Belinda, he pressed Belinda to the ground, and then gradually entered the house, always like to tell Belinda, and when he is rich, he will maintain Belinda as a lover.
And that's not the point.
The point is that the author does not describe the gaze that these people cast towards Sena and the young man who were in the living room when they entered the house, and did not even describe the attention of the two of them.
……
Thinking about it this way, Carol is even more uncomfortable as a reader,
Needless to say, although young men are driven by desire, such simple desires are already the last beauty in Sena's life.
But if it's Senna's fantasy...... Even if it's a beautiful fantasy, it's only to this extent, and it's even more uncomfortable.
Looking at the beginning of this chapter, Carol, the reader, is still looking forward to the redemption of Senna, the protagonist of this chapter.
Even if it is tiny and insignificant, it can make people feel a glimmer of hope,
But throughout the story, Senash is like a stone falling into the calm waters of a river, never struggling once, just sinking and sinking in the water.
Let the hearts of the readers who have finished reading also sink.
But maybe that's exactly what happened,
only to make Carol, the reader, feel that this book is better,
is the description of such a story that can make people unforgettable for a long time,
Or rather, it's hard to get even.
Most of the classics are tragedies, and Carroll is barely able to accept them.
Although I was depressed and uncomfortable, I was also more impressed by the excellence and greatness of this book.
And in the chapter of lust,
In fact, there are a lot of satirical descriptions,
For example, Sena, the prostitute, is a believer,
I can be a prostitute, but I am afraid that I will not be able to go to heaven after committing suicide.
And her roommate Belinda is sarcastic about her.
"Hoo ......"
"It's a great work."
While depressed, Carol looked at the end of the erotic chapter,
and a little excited, because such an excellent work will wait in his hands for publication,
He felt a sense of honor for it.
I am also amazed by my own 'discernment'.
"Look, you'll all be amazed at my eyes. Oh, it's already silent, how can Bert Press, which is about to lose its voice in the publishing industry, publish such an excellent work. ”
"Oh, what kind of good fortune did they have to get such a book to be submitted to Bert Press, damn it, damn it!"
Carroll was in her office, mimicking what her future Bert Publishers competitors might say,
Then he laughed happily again.
It was great to have this book as his first book published as editor-in-chief of Burt Press!
……
"Editor-in-Chief Lou of Delvin Publishing: Mr. Ji, have you received an email from the Europa Science Fiction Award Committee? The publisher has already received it.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Got it.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: Congratulations again to Mr. Ji for winning the Europa Science Fiction Award for Best Feature-Length Science Fiction, I see that some social media are on the hot search.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Thank you, it's on the hot search?
Editor-in-Chief Lou: Yes, Mr. Ji may not have paid attention to his work when he was busy with his work, but there is already news about Mr. Ji's award on some social media, and some readers' comments are quite interesting.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Isn't it just a second-rate award? Such a big influence? ”
Ji Zhuo was eating dinner outside,
After receiving the news from the editor-in-chief Lou of the Delvin Publishing House, I chatted briefly.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: It's not ...... Second-rate awards. It's just not as top in the world, but it's still the best sci-fi award in Europa. And before Mr. Ji, there were very few other science fiction writers in China who won this award.
Clumsy and Extraordinary: Oh, I see.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: Hmm...... Mr. Ji, you see, if you are going to go to the scene to receive the award, the publishing house can help you arrange your trip, and the award ceremony will be half a month later.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: If you don't want to go, Mr. Ji, you can reply to the organizing committee in advance and ask them to send the trophy at that time. ”
"Clumsy and extraordinary: let them send it."
Ji Zhuo thought about it, Europa is so far away, and the publishing house arranges travel, and then arranges some activities, such as interviews and book signings.
Don't delay writing a new book...... Hey, I'm such a diligent author.
Ji Zhuo sighed with emotion and admired his diligence.
"Editor-in-Chief Lou: Okay, do you need us to reply to the email...... Well, there may be an online connection and an interview at that time.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Okay, thank you, editor-in-chief Lou.
Editor-in-Chief Lou: Mr. Ji is polite, the publishing house is for Mr. Ji and you authors. Of course, it would be better if Mr. Ji had a suitable new book when he had a suitable new book, and it would be better to think more about our publishing house.
Clumsy and Extraordinary: Uh-huh. ”
Editor-in-Chief Lou laughed, but Ji Zhuo looked at it but felt a little weak.
After all, a new book was submitted to another publisher.
