Any kind of denomination can lighten the spirit or obscure the spirit. In the history of Modern Chinese Literature, lot of critics much prefer to definite Xiaohong as a Anti-Japanese patriotic literary woman. The basis of this definition is some kind of external political criterion: author must reflect the time spirits, must serve Anti-Japanese, then they can be admitted by people, as well as they note some aspects of XiaoHong's spirits. Upon that, some XiaoHong's works which dissociate with this political criterion, either were omitted on purpose by critics or misread unconsciously. Especially for her late works, which were criticized as the retrograde writing, as the subjects of the works is nothing to do with the war of Anti-Japanese. Then these works were through into the limbo and take several lonesome years until the upsurge of researching of XiaoHong coming so that its were delivered from oppression.Such kind of tough demand to unify the writers and writings, undoubtedly her unusual charm of narration as a individual was sheltered. General speaking, as a independent authoress, Xiao Hong has her own philosophy of literature and her own point of view to life and express mode, so as the distinct narration tactics were founded in the production process. These tactics was negated and questioned, but for the far-reaching vitality of literature, that exactly is her special charm. Breaking through predecessor's research, this articles will analysis the distinct tactics of Xiao Hong's works by the narrative technique and the narrative subject aspect.First part, supernatural style of writing: distinct artistic thought. This part analysis the narration tactics of Xiao Hong's novel from the technique aspect. Just like what said by critics, Xiao Hong's novel is the novel which unlike novel. Her novel not so much like assembled character as assembled of pictures. In this part, I will analysis the special narrate technique from two aspects: one is the distinct display of time and space, the other is different artistic form's interpenetration. In the narration, Xiao Hong adopt different mode to dispose the relation between time and space with the traditional novel.It should be mentioned that her novel's time frame spurns the space frame, cavalier perspective cease the continuity of time, that let the novel shows more painting sensation. The time and space's interconversion was accomplished by theatricalizing the novel's time and the artistic design for the novel's space, then the unique space-time style novel was formed. Meanwhile, Xiao Hong applies the way of the mind and the composition technique of the drawing to the color utilization, the image narrates in the novel and so on .She describes the local conditions and social customs and the life prospect by painter's writing technique, which makes the work presenting the intense color feeling and the bright drawing.The second part, The losing myth: the appearance of the ugly women. In this part of the article I will analyze the narration tactics of Xiao Hong'works by using the feminine narrative angle . As the modern feminine writer, Xiao Hong not only pays attention to the national question, but also pay more attention to the female , especially the village female question, thinking about whose misery performance and the destiny. In this part, I will grasp the feminine images ,which are portrayed by Xiao Hong , from the macroscopic and the microscopic aspect . From the macroscopic aspect, she has broken the mythological portal of feminine images in the masculine narrative words .Taking her own sufferings as the datum and taking her own experience as the reference, she described a vivid world about the ugly female to us, which seems strange but in fact completely veritable. From the microscopic aspect, taking the personal experience as a datum, Xiao Hong presents the appearance of the ugly women from three aspects to us: The presentation of ugly body, the disillusion of the birth myth as well as forfeit and reduces of the motherhood. The presentation of the body has never been appeared from the former literature. Although it presents as the weird form, it is the most really portrayal of feminine misery, which enables the reader to have other one kind of reading possibility.The paper analysis distinct tactics of Xiao Hong's works by the narrative technique and the feminine narrative aspect, expanding the research of Xiao Hong's works in certain degree.
