Reaction to the book

    The book is about a plague in Oran, and the author stands in the perspective of a recorder, objectively telling the struggles, resistance, despair, and salvation of the people of this plague-ravaged city. At the beginning of the book, it felt very bland, as if to tell a story, when the plague occurred in people's lives and psychological activities to the book. Later, when you think back, you will find how rare, especially in the plague occurred at all stages of people's psychological description, it is impossible to force kneeling, no sense of harm, true and vivid, every meticulous psychological description can withstand repeated scrutiny, as if the author really experienced a plague, can have special skills to spy on everyone's inner world, and then no processing of the original picture moved to the book.   One of the characters that impressed me very much is Tallu. At first, he was an unobtrusive presence, and then, when he chose to organize the epidemic prevention team, I slowly began to pay attention to him. But the author has described his brushstrokes so few that he can't know his motives, or what kind of role he is playing, in short, a very mysterious character. After that, I got to know him after a conversation with the doctor in Tiantaishan. A spiritual prisoner and a saint. In this absurd world, always want to fight against it, but in the long struggle years, has become an ally in this absurd world. Then he did not choose to compromise, but still resisted, longing for real peace.
