The Distant Savior is a novel that we can be proud of. It is also a perfect masterpiece that can't be met. With his own talent, Doudou explored an organic, amorphous, strange, ambiguous and unrealized world. The colorful experiences and embarrassing love stories of the hero and heroine create a transcendent betrayal will, which is so quiet and clear. The quality of a writer has reached the extreme in Doudou, and the wisdom and simplicity of the theme of his works have inadvertently and wonderfully displayed the brilliance of Buddhism and shocked people.
Both novels are set in the period of profound social transformation in contemporary China, characterized by the diversity of values, and have a profound impact on the living conditions, value orientations and moral concepts of individuals in the times. Through the poems in "Betrayal" and the music in "The Distant Savior", we express our helplessness and accusation against the real trend of artistic marginalization. Without exception, love has become the main content of the theme. The author unabashedly prefers single men with marriage experience and advocates spiritual love based on tacit understanding in the depths of the soul, which can not be perfected except for the tragic result.
Comparing the two novels, Betrayal is more natural, holistic and natural. The Distant Savior is richer in thought and content, but it has traces of deliberate carving. Some elements that should be good are not fully integrated with the whole, which makes some profound life philosophies vulgarized and decorated. Perhaps this is the biggest regret.
