The well-known modern Chinese female writer San Mao relied on her beautiful love story in the Sahara Desert to capture many male and female readers all over the world who have good expectations for love. She used her exquisite literary style to record the ordinary and trivial marriage life, so that many people still retain their longing and yearning for beautiful love.
However, in the book "The Mystery of San Mao" written by Ma Zhongxin, it is said that the love described by San Mao was all made up by herself! This book has caused a lot of controversy. The world's evaluation of this book is both good and bad. So why does he say that? What kind of person is the real Sanmao?
Sanmao once wrote when describing the story between the two people. When he met Jose, he was still in the third year of university in Madrid, and he was an 18-year-old high school student studying nearby. Later, the two fell in love at the university because of accident. The author of the book personally visited and found that Sanmao went to Spain before graduating from junior high school, and lived at the home of a full-time chef of a Taiwanese master in Spain.
The chef has a son who is in junior high school. Jose is his classmate. Because he lives in the same apartment, he often visits his house to play. San Mao Meet Jose.
So, the story that the two met by chance at university was just made up by Sanmao. Jose is just an ordinary diver and never went to university, let alone a diving engineer! However, although Sanmao made up the image of Jose, his love life with Jose in the Sahara Desert is real. So why is Sanmao wandering?
Sanmao once talked about her fate with the Sahara in her work, she accidentally turned to an American geography magazine, and the theme of that issue happened to be the Sahara Desert. She only watched it once and felt that the Sahara Desert was her dream girl for many years. This is Sanmao, who is headstrong and longing for freedom, and Jose is just the one who is willing to go to the desert with her to suffer for love. Perhaps the greatest happiness in life is that someone is willing to wander with you.
From a certain perspective, Sanmao is happy, because Jose has spent six years with her in her life, but from another perspective, she Unfortunately, because her short-term happiness only existed for six years. After six years of marriage, Jose, a diver, accidentally lost his life during a mission. Sanmao watched her husband being nailed into the coffin with her own eyes. She lost her beloved person. Sanmao was 36 years old that year.
Later, forty-eight-year-old San Mao ended his life in the hospital with stockings. This year, 12 years have passed since Hexi's death. Someone once questioned the authenticity of the story between her and Hexi in Sanmao's pen. Although some of the descriptions do not match the facts, someone once found the tombstone of Hexi according to the address recorded in the Sanmao text.
In fact, there are many things that are true and false, why should they be so clear? If you want to wander, go wandering, love if you want, live if you want to live, and die if you want to die. This is the life Sanmao believes in.
Jose is the home of Sanmao. Instead of living in the world to torture himself, it is better to conquer love and die. This is the real Sanmao.
