On The Artistic Performance And Aesthetic Significance Of Dong Xi’s Black Humor Fiction

Helplessness is the background of black humor.Whether it is the orthodox Western black humor “22nd Military Regulations” or “You have no choice” that has grown through absorption in China after drifting across the sea,it is all due to helplessness.The texture presents people’s struggle with reality.The Dong Xi’s novels show the variation and struggle of people under the pressure of cultural inheritance and reality through the shaping of the most typical black humorous character “anti-heroes”;they use sarcasm to counteract reality in language;and reveal the general people’s living conditions through the defamiliarization of art.The hardships and the crisis of the spiritual world.He turned writing’s brushstrokes to “ugliness,” describing the indifference of human emotions,the psychology of metamorphosis,the sinisterness of the human mind,and the ugliness of losing people’s hearts for money;in the face of the unalterable reality,the characters or choices in his writing are for destiny and reality.Yielding and receiving,or fighting for resistance,perseverance,but eventually kill or end.The Dong Xi’s works reveal the worrying situation of the modern people.The emptiness and anxiety of the spiritual world after the material enrichment have become the psychological diseases of modern people.As small people at the bottom,they have no way of grasping their own fate.In the midst of fate,reality,and power,they linger and use their bodies as weapons against everything,even if the final result is demise.Why does this suicidal struggle come about? Because they want to be a person,a person who strives to lead a happy life through his own efforts,a complete person who does not define himself by symbols,and if such a desire cannot be achieved,then rebellion becomes a necessity.
