The new edition of the information article is shocked by the details—reading 'Love of Life'
The first time I thought it was very tedious, the second time I finally understood it, but the third time it was shocking.
To be honest, if it were not for the task of the book club, I almost gave up on this article in the first half. But now I am glad that I persisted, because it was only after I persisted that I could read such a story about persistence.
first time
The beginning of the article is very cumbersome. He is frequently used to change the title between the protagonist and his friend Bill. Since the author does not give the protagonist a name, why not write it in the first person? I thought so at the time. Indeed, in this paragraph, the article uses the first person
It's much smoother.
Next, I saw a large section of psychology and some descriptions of the environment and action details. Over and over again, there were some irrelevant things. As a novice who loves easy reading, I gave up and read the ending directly. The ending was written
, the protagonist escapes from danger... This is nothing surprising. At this time, I pulled the scroll bar casually. As a result, I saw this paragraph-"So, a cruel survival tragedy that has never been performed before began-"
—The patient crawled all the way, and the sick wolf limped all the way. The two creatures were dragging their dying bodies in the wilderness, preying on each other's life."
Second time
If you put aside the cumbersome beginning, the really dramatic part of this article should start with the confrontation between the protagonist and the big brown bear. The bear competes with humans for wits, but humans should win because of his courage bursting out in desperate situations.
Rather than his wisdom. Isn't this interesting? It's really interesting.
Looking down, the most exciting part of this story comes. The contest between the patient and the sick wolf. Unlike the previous big brown bear, this time the author cleverly arranged an old wolf who was also dying to compete with the protagonist. At this moment, these two
In fact, every living thing has nothing, except their own life, and even this life is already precarious.
They all want to win, but not for hegemony over the continent, not for wealth and beauty, nor for national justice... Only at this time can life play the strongest voice. At this time, I no longer think about who should live, wolf or human.
Because at this moment, humans and wolves are equal, and they both want to live.
Like the previous one, this paragraph is also written in detail. It details the wolf's cough, the wolf's breathing, the beating of healthy life around it, and every hallucination... But at this time, probably only detailed descriptions can explain it.
That's all.
Suddenly I understood why the author used the pronoun he to refer to the humans in the story (including the protagonist's friend Bill). This is the legendary God's perspective. A perspective that is objective and cold. Use the person's name or the first person instead.
It will destroy this artistic conception. Aren't the people struggling in the world being scrutinized by this cold eye?
The third time
This time I saw more touching details contained in this short article. I saw that Bill ruthlessly betrayed the protagonist, but he still believed that his friends would be waiting for him at Little Stick Place, and together they would
Go home. It’s strange to have such thoughts after being betrayed by a friend. The protagonist is simply a fool...
But I have to admit that the protagonist should have saved him because of this optimistic spirit. Because he believes, there is hope. Hope is really very important to a person who is in desperate situation. And when the protagonist sees
When he found Bill's body, he did not take Bill's gold, and there was no hatred or madness in his heart... Life has reached the edge of death, and many people use this as the most fair and just excuse for their evil deeds. But our protagonist, he has a sparkle
The remaining humanity has not been lost...
Except for the messy beard, there is no description of the protagonist's appearance in the whole text, nor is there a single word to describe the protagonist's character. But everything about him is vivid on the page. I have written countless descriptions of the tiger's body and the huge earthquake, and I feel it.
The gap, the huge gap. Going home and reflecting...
In the grand scene of the duel between heavenly masters, the final fight between wolf and man seems so ridiculous, so weak and powerless. But when we look back many years later, the former has been lost to time, but the latter is still faint.
Revealing a kind of strength.
What is power? Use a sentence from the article to explain:
"Even if he is in the iron palm of death, he will still resist it and refuse to die."
