chapter 1:Preface
Hawthorn Love is based on something that is similar to memoir which was written by
Jingqiu in 1977,narrative parts of the book are writtenby Amy and conversation parts are
from the original words of Jingqiu.
1977 was the first year of restoring college entrance examination system after the culture
revolution in China,at that time,Jingqiu had participated in the work,replacing the duties of her
mother,and worked as a teacher in the attached primary school of the eighth middle school
of city K,province L.She also applied to attend the college entrance exam.
Her life was already better many times than she replaced the duties of her mother,and this
time fortunate enough to enroll in college entrance examination,she thought of Sun ever used
those words to comfort her,saying she would move back from the countryside,saying
Heaven has endowed me with talents for eventual use.
Unfortunately, when the prophecy of Sun began to become reality one by one,he himself
became a beautiful dream.Seeing things,missing people,Jingqiu began to write the memoir
to commemorate Sun with that period of time spend together.
Later she written the story about Sun and make it to a 3-million words novel,sent it to the magazine of L provincial literature.At that time,she even
didn't know submission of novel should be written on the profile-paper rather than the general trabeculae writing paper.
However,the novel was returned,editor comment said:"Writing is delicate,fresh style...but
people lack fighting spirit...",called her rewrite the novel according to the comment and sent
to L provincial literature again.
But Jingqiu didn't rewrite it,for one reason, she was busy preparing the exzaminations,for
another,she wrote the novel to commemorate Sun,if changed it as the editor required,Sun
would not make itself,so even if it would be published,there was no meaning.
Later,Lu Xinhua's Scar published,Chinese literature stepped into "Scar Literature"
period...
Amy's father joked that regrettably the editor of L provincial literature was too timid,
otherwise he can be written into the history of Chinese literature replaced editors of Scar .
Ten years later,Jingqiu left city K and go to the capital city of province L to study,and then
later her sister went abroad,her mother and brother immigrated successively,things at home
were throw away.The rejection,no one knew where had it been threw,but the memoir writing
in a diary was saved by her mother and taken to Canada.
When Amy finished writing fatal tender,she often received whispers or placards from the net
friends,who recommended to write about the story of Jingqiu.At that time Amy didn't know
this story yet,only knew the other paragraphs,so she often "threat" Jingqiu,said to write her
story,but she didn't agree.
On the Spring Festival of this year,Jingqiu brought her daughter Sara visited Amy with the
diary,allowed Amy to pick out some contents to write something to mark the story happened
thirty years ago.
Then here came the Hawthorn Love.
