Inexplicably, I remembered what the gambler played by Robert Redford in "Havana" said to Lena Olin, the wife of the revolutionary leader - If you want to change something, change me.
Suddenly I understand why Jane's few novels There are so many happy endings. If you can't do anything to change your ending, and you happen to be a novelist, even if you only write about boudoir affairs, you can at least arrange a happy ending for your beloved protagonist. This may be the only privilege of being a novelist.
Not all readers need the big tragedy, the big bloody scene, the big life-and-death conflict. Such a profound proposition is self-claimed. Each has its own strengths, each has its own advantages, and there is no need to force it. Eileen Chang also said, "I even write about small things between men and women. There is no war or revolution in my works. I think that when people are in love, they are more simple and simple than when they are in war or revolution. It's more unrestrained." If you only write about the little things that happen around you, but still can move people's hearts more than a century later, you are successful.
The world used to be mostly small people, but it is just a look of joy in a look, and a sadness in a small parting, which are all trivial and trivial things, and seeing a happy ending is regarded as a great joy. The sun of high art is also cold on the body, we only need warm cheesy happiness.
