An introduction to Malicious Intent

“Malicious Intent” tells the story of a writer who is killed the night before leaving the country. The police quickly locate the killer, but the truth is far from the truth [1]. Its main body is manifested as the first person indefinite internally focused narrative, and fully embodies the characteristics of the internally focused narrative [2]. The story stops abruptly at the end, which prevents the reader from quickly disengaging from the focal point of the narrative discourse. This lack of disengagement often makes the novel more thought-provoking, and makes it more possible to understand the theme of the novel, namely, the malice of human nature.

The paper

Recently, I have made up several higashino Keigo’s novels, here is “Malicious” this novel, to tell the truth, in the short story I indulge in it, into the feeling is very strong, even let me have a kind of illusion of making a film

Evaluation:

4 star

Features of this book:

The camera is switched, and there are many puzzles

The book uses a large number of first person view switching methods, and the most important part is the first person view switching

Preconceptions, fascinating

According to the narrative plot, a story is told from different perspectives, which is probably what attracts me most in Toshino’s works. He can always control the rhythm of the story very well

It is of profound significance to build on the past

At the end of the beginning of the mapping, the dark side of human nature will be further amplified, giving people infinite thinking

Deriving from

1. It’s not the violence itself that scares him, it’s the negative energy of people who hate him. He had never imagined that such malice could exist in the world.

The relationship between teachers and students is based on an illusion. Teachers are under the illusion that they can teach students, and students are under the illusion that they can learn from teachers. The important thing is that maintaining this illusion can be a happy thing for both parties. Because seeing the truth doesn’t do any good. What we’re doing here is educational house play.

3. Malice in human nature: greed, jealousy… It’s a terrible negative energy. It makes people tremble.

4. I think it’s hard to pretend to be happy when you’re in pain, but it’s easier to pretend to be miserable when you’re happy.

5. You don’t mind getting arrested, you risk the rest of your life, you degrade the other person. What kind of state of mind is this? To be honest, I can’t really see any logical reason for it.

My point of view

  1. There is no place in society for a man who is too good-natured
  2. Do not harm others, but do not prevent others
  3. Don’t offend or annoy small people. Be grateful to everyone who is willing to spend their time with you
  4. Preconceptions are the greatest weakness of human nature
  5. When it comes to building confidence, it’s easy to ruin a person with low self-esteem and overconfidence

The end:

Toshino once said: there are two things in the world that can not be looked at, one is the sun, the other is the heart. I miss time of the campus, there is the most light before entering society the most splendid time, but I would like to be the darkest depths of a lamp, illuminate even I also don’t know how to walk the road, I will do everything I can to give each other help, even if it is only open a door for others, always remember that pay will have return, is only a matter of time before.

I think, since can not avoid malicious, also can not let oneself have no malicious, then constantly reflect on constantly thinking. I think it is the most critical thing for everyone to find his own white stone

Whether our actions are malicious or not

Recommended language:

I think every technical person should see, care for others should be enough, do not have to be too good.

Conclusion:

What impresses me most in the second half of this book is the chapter of the passerby: commenting on others from the perspective of the passerby. The author has a very real recovery of how to know a person through the third person in the real world, which also contains the malice of different people. At the same time, from the beginning of the book to the end of the book, there is no place without malice. At the same time, the negative energy of such malice is like air, which makes readers unable to perceive and even accustomed to it. In addition, the author wants to convey that readers should not be preconceived, because prejudice will affect one’s judgment of things.

This book will magnify the reality infinitely, will show the sinister of human nature naked, the malicious will never stop, we need to do is careful words and deeds.
