Love, debauchery? On body writing from the perspective of the city

The Chinese urban literary context of the 1990s has brought the liberation of Chinese urban women's desires to a considerable depth. Some female writers, mainly Lin Bai, who were famous for their "body writing", introduced some unexpressed female body desires into literature for the first time. However, the rise of consumer culture destroyed this beautiful picture. The voyeuristic desire of men and society has also led to a part of women's culture that is gradually becoming vulgar, inferior, and commercially deviant. This paper focuses on "One Man's War" and analyzes the difference between "body writing" "traditional writing" and "love writing" in the context of urban culture by reading the original text and combining it with Sisu's "body writing" theory. By reading the original text and combining Sisu's "body writing" theory, we analyze the difference between "body writing" and "traditional writing", "love writing" and "erotic writing" in the context of urban culture, and reposition the value of "body writing" to explore its literary-historical significance.
