Abstract

Lei's work explores the theme of existentialism, reflecting the anxiety and uncertainty that modern people experience in the face of a rapidly changing world. The stories explore the dislocation and suffering experienced by modern people in a heterogeneous cultural space, the anxiety of existential existence, and the alienation and dislocation of interpersonal relationships.
