The Suspended Autumn《悬置的秋天》
A novella · published on Douban Read, 2026 · free to read · also on Apple Books
A young man living in Zhuhai — southern, coastal, perpetually green — drifts back, almost by accident, to the northern hometown he left behind. An autumn suspended between two lives. The prose borrows its weather from Murakami and its streets from northern China.
在这座城市里，我的名字不重要。快递柜记得我，但它只认取件码；考勤机记得我，但它只认指纹；楼下便利店的关东煮锅记得我，因为每晚十点四十，我准时买走最后一串不辣的萝卜。除此之外，这座城市的冬天对我没有别的记忆。……只有一件事没有学会——在这里，我没有任何一件东西是旧的。旧东西是记忆的锚，我的锚都在北方。
