Abstract:
Golden Age uses an aesthetic point of view to structure the history. The memory of the " Cultural Revolution" is described in the poetic language, making the historical memory full of the sense of beauty and poetry instead of the sense of being heroic and tragic. The author has a complex attitude to "Cultural Revolution", which is mixed with criticism and idealism.
Golden Age structures the history in children's perspective, which typically practices the idea of " Defamiliarization" and makes the novels much funny.
