The paper analyses the influence of subject matter of love on contemporary fictions writing; explores the topic of love entering deep strata beyond literature using many kinds of ways; reevaluates contemporary love fictions; and rethinks some popular ideas of criticism.Chapter OneIt makes a general outline of narration of love in contemporary fictions from two angles: the diachronic and the synchronic. In early days of contemporary times, narration of love, as an important content, took part in the transformation of history and became a member of chorus in era. During this period, people disputed about narration of love basically on the meaning of non-literature, and paid more attention to morals and ideals in love, while less attention to the essence of love itself.
