《文青之死》内容简介
“九则故事,尽管角色、情节有异,但大抵是内在生命与现实相互牵制或漠视的故事,症状表现为错误的情感、志业的彷徨——多数文青人生正是在这两者病去了大半。”
昔日文青,却已成我辈中年。但他们曾有理想与实践,对社会的感受、冲撞世界的步伐,皆远超众人。如今,那些过去种种,是否还留下些什么?疲于应付现实的文青们,又是否仍怀抱着什么?
对拥有敏感真挚之心的许多文青,《文青之死》是小说家给他们的安慰,也是走下去的期盼与祝福:“道阻且长,让我们一起继续”。

Brief introduction to the content of Wenqing's Death
"The nine stories, although the characters and plots are different, are mostly stories of mutual restraint or disregard between inner life and reality, and the symptoms are manifested as wrong emotions and hesitation of ambition - it is in these two diseases that most Wenqing lives have gone."
In the past, but has become my generation of middle-aged. However, they once had ideals and practices, and their sense of society and the pace of collision with the world were far superior to those of others. Now, is there anything left of the past? Tired of dealing with the reality of the Wenqing, and are they still holding what?
For many Wenqing who have a sensitive and sincere heart, "Wenqing's Death" is the novelist's comfort to them, but also the expectation and blessing to go on: "The road is blocked and long, let us continue together."
