The writing focus of He Dun’s anti-Japanese theme novel See You Next Life is not the Anti-Japanese War, but the cultural revolution; the writer’s attention is not on the history, but the human struggles of ordinary people under extreme political conditions. The hero Huang Kangri was able to escape from dangers and back to home safely through the application of his philosophy of survival in the sinister and brutal living environment of the anti-Japanese war; but in the political context of the Cultural Revolution, he was forced to pretend to be mad, eat shit, and still ended with his family broken, life and personality mutilated to pieces. Through the contrast, the novel erectes a blank stele for the Cultural Revolution, making a wordless complaint against it.
