《春鸟》【内容简介】

　　“归根结底，是因为我一直无法参透人生，而那远大的志向又重压着我，令我无比苦闷。”

　　本书是日本自然主义文学先驱国木田独步的短篇小说杰作，收录包括《武藏野》《富冈先生》《画的悲哀》等在内14篇作品。国木田一生只有短短三十七年，创作了几十篇短篇小说和大量诗歌。他在世时的大部分时间都没有获得世俗意义上的成功，却在小说集《命运》刚开始收获大量好评时就染上了肺结核，匆匆离世。国木田的这份遗憾与理想终究难以完满的形象也充斥在他作品之中，在风云变幻的时代，无法获得任何的主人公只能“独步”于山林，将自己交付于都市郊外的丰富自然之中，这反倒成就了国木田生动而独特的风格，他的作品历经百年，读起来仍令人感到清新、自由，在寂寥之中传达着率真。

　　在一个风云变化、机遇充沛的时代，国木田被动又主动地与热闹的世界保持着距离，像一个失意的隐士，又像一个睿智的哲人，他面对过渡时代的心境变化在今天依然能带来无限共鸣。

"Spring Bird" 【 Content Introduction 】

"At the end of the day, it is because I have not been able to understand life, and the great ambition has weighed on me, making me extremely depressed."

This book is a masterpiece of short stories by Kunikita Dobu, a pioneer of Japanese naturalist literature. It contains 14 works including "Musashino", "Mr. Tomioka" and "Painting's Sorrow". Kunikita's life was only thirty-seven years, and he wrote dozens of short stories and a large number of poems. He spent most of his life without worldly success, but just as his collection of stories, Destiny, was beginning to gain critical acclaim, he contracted tuberculosis and died quickly. This image of Kunikita's regret and ideal that cannot be fulfilled after all is also filled with his works. In the era of vicissitudes, the protagonist who cannot get anything can only "walk" in the mountains and mountains and surrender himself to the rich nature in the outskirts of the city, which makes Kunikita's vivid and unique style. His works are still fresh and free to read after hundreds of years. Conveys the truth in the solitude.

In an era of changing circumstances and abundant opportunities, Kunikita passively and actively maintains a distance from the lively world, like a frustrated hermit, but also like a wise philosopher, his mood changes in the face of the transition era can still bring unlimited resonance today.
