Characteristics and Styles of Rural Fiction in the New Era

(Abstract)

 

Zhang Fan

 

Compared with the past, rural fiction in the New Era focus on new changes in the countryside, tell the story of rural governance, and describe the growth and entrepreneurial history of new rural people. Writers intervene in rural life from a new perspective, using a combination of individual narratives and grand narratives to express the changes in production methods, human feelings and values in the countryside during the period of social transformation, deeply linking individual life experiences with the development of urban and rural China, and revealing the rich life scenes and humanistic landscapes of rural Chinese society in the New Era.
