On Mo Yan’s War Ideas --- Based on Red Sorghum, Big Breasts and Wide Hips

Abstract

Mo Yan has expressed his simple war ideas through his war fictions. He writes that the bandit resists against Japan for the purpose of rewriting the standard of the hero of resisting against Japan. He praises mother and expresses his own anti-war position by mother’s boring sufferings. MoYan's war fictions have shown the war noumenon from many different aspects, and has expanded the aesthetic space of the war greatly.
