About Book

The Detective Novelist's Book of the Future is the first collection of short stories by emerging novelist Zhou Kai. These ten stories depict the "degeneration of the flesh" and the "purity of poetry."
"At that time, my situation was terrible. During the day, I worked at the radio station, stuttering when reading my manuscripts and constantly receiving complaints. At night, I was at home writing about a bunch of hopeless people"—a detective novelist who predicted his own future, a magazine editor who suddenly disappeared the night before a party, a homeless man who lived in a tent next to a cemetery, and a pretender who lived seven lives under seven names...
This is a work I wrote without considering publication, dedicated to everyone in a difficult situation. "True freedom must be a demand on oneself, unrelated to others. Loneliness is a dilemma, not freedom. We often fall into the dilemma of self-righteous loneliness."
