Mo Yan becomes a high-profile writer in the literary world with a series of amply folk literature.He has been sticking to his own unique personality and mentality, telling the story of his own, clinging to the aesthetic study of the man with the folk world, which shows a strong folk characteristic.The folk characteristic of the literature has a unique liberty, a kind of life character, it permeates in the creation subject writing position, value orientation and aesthetic style in the potential form.Mo yan is a native write,he grew up in the countryside, had a long-term participation in agricultural labor, which made him branded with the farmer’s mark from the inside out.lt not only comes from his familiar to the countryside, but also lies in his pedigree farmers, temperament, psychological and the subconscious mind, he doesn’t even use the eyes and the brain to observe and think about the rural people’s living condition, because, every pore of his thick sends out local breath. Mo yan constructs a world everywhere highlights the vitality of life based on local folklore stories or social reality, and the most basic elements of constituting the life world is the strong consciousness of life and desire.In the novel, "my grandfather" "grandma" "father" "mother" "sister-in-law" and so on,these characters all have multiple occurrences, the characters in real life are real, a lot of their story in the novel are based on realistic fiction, but are drawn from the folk.He uses the vocabulary and sentence patterns, which makes a cleanly sweep of all kinds:spoken language, dialect, foreign words and many words with language style of the era, they look very different, but,they have formed a series pictures with the charm of the language. Mo yan likes to use the traditional folk rap art in the course of novel creation, folk mass of traditional operas are brought into the novel, the weifang New Year pictures, jiaodong paper-cut, cat cavity, the marriage ceremony are also used in the novel, which creates an atmosphere of sadness through the music and picture to write the hero suffering fate. Mo yan’s folk creation have made great achievements, but there are also some shortcomings.Mo yan likes to mobilize various sensory organs and the style of coming from the virtual to the physical,this makes his works be a feast, which is substantial, can be rewarded, can be to hear, so it can achieve the artistic effect of defamiliarization.However, in the works of mo yan, desire, the value of the vulgar tendency and the outstanding phenomenon of ugliness all suggest that the folk standpoint and attitude of its writing are mentioned to a too high level, which leads to his own lost, and he is unable to distinguish between folk inherent essence and dregs.From the objective point of view, some shortcomings can not cover the deficiency of the works contained in the folk. On the contrary, these deficiencies and defects and can provide people with the perspective of the thinking and exploration, and export.
