Chi Zijian is a literary spirit who pursues freedom.In order to realize the free state of mind,she keeps a distance from the reality deliberately,and vibrates the wings of imagination,flying in the sky of literature.When encountering the ugly invasion of the world,Chi Zijian maintains the softness,elasticity and detachment of his mind by recalling or creating beautiful things.Therefore,her novels reveal a unique and precious warm atmosphere,with the pure and holy temperament of fairy tales.This kind of writing is called Chi Zijian's “fairy tale”.The first chapter explains Chi Zijian's “fairy tales”.In fact,“fairy tales” are the literary projection of the writer's ideal mood,a kind of persistent and positive value construction.Through the depiction of animals,plants and characters,we can feel Chi Zijian's the pursuit of fantastic and poetic effect and his desire to transcend reality.The second chapter analyzes the predicament and Countermeasures of Chi Zijian's“fairy tale” writing in the tide of market economy of 1990 s.Although the warmth and ideal in Chi Zijian's works are charming,the author's endurance of suffering,violence and crime results in the false characters,the negative reading impression of avoiding reality and writing repetition.This reflects the writer's helplessness and persistence in the face of loss of spirit in the context of market.She still wants to continue the fairy tale mood of “standing behind the window” in reality,but always felt helpless.The gradual fading of Chi Zijian's character which “divine light”shows the difficulty of her fairy tale writing.For Chi Zijian,“Fairy tale” writing is not only her response to the tide of market economy,but also has the meaning of self deception.Chapter three explains Chi Zijian's reconstruction of fairy tale divinity.In Chi Zijian's works,divinity is the spiritual belief of characters.Because the “divine light” of the character is dim,so she can't achieve self salvation.Chi Zijian begins to write aboutnature again,which like her writing in the literary world at the beginning.Chi Zijian rebuilt divinity,continued “fairy tales” and saved himself by returning to the natural ecological writing.This way of writing is similar to writers in Northeast China.Chi Zijian's writing of nature is highly relevant for the soul belief in the black land of Northeast China,which shows the writer's compassion.
