Chapter 314 "Flower City"(2/2)

The magazine columns include "Xiangjiang Newsletter", "Overseas Winds", "Foreign Literature" and many other literary works introducing overseas countries and regions.

Therefore, it has been loved by many domestic literature lovers. Its sales volume has been stable at 6 to 7 million copies all year round, and its popularity is not inferior to magazines such as "Contemporary", "October", and "Harvest".

In addition to being the chief editor of "Flower City", Li Shifei is also the second-in-command of the Guangdong Literary and Art Association and the chief editor of Huacheng Publishing House. He is a well-known figure in the cultural circles of GD Province.

With Zhang Guangnian acting as the intermediary, Lin Chaoyang naturally would not refuse people thousands of miles away, and politely chatted with Li Shifei for a while.

When the two sides gradually chatted, Li Shifei asked: "I wonder what Comrade Chaoyang thinks of the works of the 'magic realism' genre that originated in Latin America?"

Lin Chaoyang didn't understand why he suddenly talked about the subject of magical realism, and said thoughtfully:

“The birth and popularity of magical realism in Latin America is rooted in local social and national factors.

‘Magic’ means unreal, but adding ‘realism’ builds a more imaginative text model based on realism.

I don't know much about the social development and history of Latin America, and I can't comment on it, but I have read the works of several famous Latin American writers, and they are indeed very good.

It is not just to create a fantasy world, but to try to go deep into reality and discover the mystery in things, life and human activities."

Lin Chaoyang did not talk about literature and art in a show-off manner like some people do. He just said a few words in a very low-key manner, but every sentence was on point.

"Comrade Chaoyang's summary can be said to be profound. Since this year, because Marquez won the Nobel Prize for Literature, the genre of magical realism has become very popular among domestic readers.

I have read all your works and know that you have been pursuing innovation and change since you entered the literary world and never set limits for yourself. I wonder if you are interested in creating a work in the style of magical realism?"
