Backtracking to the Age of Literature and Art

Chapter 429 Purple Dense Black Dense (Second Change)

The students were a little confused. They saw Yu Dong posed a question and thought it was Yu Dong who wanted to use this question to teach them.

Isn’t it the same for general teachers, first ask a question, then make a summary by yourself, and bring out what you want to teach when you make a summary.

But Yu Dong asked a question, just to keep them from skipping class.

Looking at the 23 blank faces, Yu Dong continued: "Just kidding, I believe that even if I don't remind you, you will definitely not skip class. As for the question just now, I have also listened to your answers, at least I did not Hear anyone say that the school wants to make you writers."

"The fact is also true. This course of mine cannot train you to become writers. Of course, if any of you want to take the path of literature, you can come to me alone. Although our school does not have a Chinese department, there are still resources in this area. of."

Obviously, after hearing Yu Dong's words, several students shook their heads violently.

"Okay, I won't say much else, let's get into the topic. Our first class today, the topic is [a book]. Each of you should have read the book."

"The books I'm talking about are not limited to novels, but can also be any other books. As long as they are books other than the textbooks used in school, they are all within the scope. Your task today is to recommend a book to me, and then try to use it as much as possible. The method that made me interested in the book you recommended."

As soon as Yu Dong finished speaking, Zu Feng raised his hand.

Zu Feng is the class monitor, he is old, steady-tempered, and he does things in a strict manner. Unlike others, he will raise his hand first every time he speaks.

"Student Zu Feng, what's your question?"

"Teacher Yu, can I recommend your book?"

"Yes." Yu Dong nodded: "But what I want to tell you is that if you recommend my book, then my requirements will definitely be higher. After all, I know my own book too well. So, If you want me to be interested in the books you recommend as soon as possible, preferably the books I haven't read."

As soon as these words came out, there was a cry of mourning.

"Ah, how is this possible, Mr. Yu, you must have read a lot of books."

"Yeah, we don't necessarily read as many books as you do."

"That's impossible."

……

Yu Dong ignored them, and called the names directly, "Liu Ye, you start first."

"Ah I?"

Hearing his name, Liu Ye stood up suddenly, but his body had reacted, but his brain hadn't reacted yet, and his face was bewildered.

"Teacher Yu, how about I wait a while and let the other students come first."

"It's just you, don't talk nonsense, let's start."

Liu Ye pinched his trousers and said nervously, "Teacher Yu, I, I really can't figure it out..."

Seeing his cowardice, Yu Dong secretly sighed, this kid is really dumb.

In terms of young age, there are many girls in the class who are as old as him. Hu Jing and the others are all 78 years old, but none of them are as cowardly as him.

"If you can't figure it out, just stand and think about it, and then talk about it." Yu Dong glanced at the crowd again, "Yuan Quan, come here."

Yuan Quan was much more generous than Liu Ye, and said with a smile, "Mr. Yu, you must have read the book I recommended, but I still recommend it because I really like it. This book is Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, my mother gave me a copy of Jane Eyre when I was in drama school, and I loved it then..."

For "Jane Eyre", Yuan Quan really likes it, and she can't stop talking about this book. The strong, independent, optimistic and enterprising heroine in the novel attracted her and encouraged her. I feel the power in the study of Peking Opera performance.

Yu Dong affirmed Yuan Quan's sharing: "Very good."

"Thank you, Teacher Yu."

"You're welcome, sit down, the next one... Hu Jing, when you ran into me on the road two days ago, did you hide from me?"

"Ah...you remember this." Hu Jing said in surprise.

Yu Dong nodded: "My memory is not bad, so you should be careful in doing things in the future. Don't expect me to have a bad memory after making a mistake. I will forgive you. Hu Jing, what book do you recommend for me?"

"You must have never read the one I recommended." Hu Jing said confidently: "I read a collection of novels called "Purple Dense Black Dense"."

Purple dense black dense?

Yu Dong was slightly taken aback, has this episode come out yet?
He knew that this collection was written by the Mai family.

When he met Yunlong before, Yu Dong was wondering where the Mai family was now, but now he was very surprised to hear "Purple and Black" from Hu Jing.

Seeing that Yu Dong didn't speak, Hu Jing thought she had mentioned Yu Dong's blind spot in knowledge, and said with a smile: "I also came across this collection of novels by accident. Not very well-known, Mr. Yu, you must have never heard of it. In this collection of novels, my favorite is the "Tune Change", it feels like watching the inner activities of a teenager..."

Hearing what Hu Jing said, the corners of Yu Dong's mouth rose. She felt that there was nothing wrong with it. "Tune Change" was extracted from Mai's diary, and it was originally the inner activities of young people.

And as far as Yu Dong knows, Mai Jia's favorite writer is Salinger, the author of "The Catcher in the Rye", and "The Catcher in the Rye" has a deep influence on Mai Jia's early writing.

After Hu Jing finished talking about her views on "Tone Change", she said proudly: "How about Teacher Yu, are you interested in this novel?"

Seeing the smug look on the girl's face, Yu Dong smiled meaningfully and said, "I remember that a novel was published in an issue of "Kunlun" a few years ago, and it was called "Transformation". Its author was Mai Jia, I don't know Is it the same person you are talking about. And I still remember that after "Kunlun" published another novel by this author called "Life in Bermuda", I don't know if it is also included in the "Purple Secret" you mentioned In Black Secret?"

When Yu Dong talked about "Kunlun" at the beginning, Hu Jing didn't react at all, after all, she usually doesn't pay attention to this kind of literary publications.

Later, when Yu Dong mentioned the name Mai's family, Hu Jing was stunned.

Later, when Yu Dong uttered "Life in Bermuda", she was completely dumbfounded.

The surprise on Teacher Yu's face just now is not because he has never heard of this book, but because he did not expect to talk about this book.

This is too strong for Teacher Yu!
Or is this Mai family actually quite famous?

Not really, if the author is very famous, it is impossible to print only [-] copies.

And reading the postscript in the book, it doesn't sound like a well-known author.

"Okay, I failed." Hu Jing lowered her head in frustration.

Yu Dong said with a smile, "There is no failure. I am very interested in your recommendation just now."
