Immortal Syndrome

A mental patient who imagines himself having served in a submarine, a lonely bird scarer at Shenyang Airport, a poor man's paradise, alcoholism, night, a traveler's wanderings, a boy's long farewell to his father... In the northern cities at the turn of the century, the characters are always lost.

This book is Zheng Zhi's new work after winning the first prize of the 2018 "Koi Anonymous Writer Program" and the first "Zhongshan Star" Annual Youth Excellent Work Award in 2019 for his short story "Xianzheng". It includes "Xianzheng", which Su Tong praised for "contributing a new character image", "Monte Carlo Cannibalism", published in the 2019 "Youth Writers Fiction Album" of "Shouhuo", and six other short stories, including the new novella "Forest in the Forest".

A mixture of magical stories and detective novel elements, strong regional colors, and special forms of daily life are told with the conciseness of spoken language and a humorous tone, narrating a boy's escape from and return to his own destiny.
