"A Critique of Works by Li Li" - 1944
莉莉以主观的情绪写了 「她」, 「花前语」，和「已死的她」这三篇文章。 “已死的她」显然有了进步。 所以对于这位新作者， 我们有着希望和好感。 也就是说希望莉莉从此更加努力。
严格来说， “她” 不能算是一篇短篇小说。 虽然作者想把它写成小说形式， 但它只是一篇未成熟的散文吧！ 「她」 是间接的故事叙述。 作者浪费了许多文字在无关主题的描写。 这些描写不曾衬显过主题。 但这浪费的描写是一般新作者所常犯的毛病。
「她」 的主题是封建社会余毒下一个女子所受的苦痛。 本来这样的题材是有相当价值的， 但是在目今的时代环境中，这个主题已失却了重要性了。 换句话来说， 就是以这个主题写成一部较好的小说时， 也引不起多大的反应。 无疑地 「她」 仍有暴露封建社会余毒的价值。
「花前语」 充满了悲剧的色彩。 作者对乐观的强调也不够。 这大约是受目前环境的影响。作者应该检讨一下。
莉莉的作品底优点是她把握着亲身的经历， 描写现实。 从 「她」 到 「已死的她」， 我们可以推测到作者的虚心和努力的情绪。 而缺点却在写作的技术。 这是可以从学习上锻炼得来的。
综上所说， 莉莉的作品虽然说不上有什么成就， 但是在我们寂寞的文坛， 有一位站在女性的独立立场说自己的独立的话， 是值得我们鼓励的。
With subjective emotions, Li Li wrote these three articles: “She”, "Love Talk at Meeting Place" and "She Who Is Dead". "She Who Is Dead" has made apparent progress, so we have hope and good impressions for this new author. In other words, I hope Li Li will work harder from now on.
Strictly speaking, "She" cannot be considered a short story. Although the author wanted to write it as a narrative form, it is perhaps just a piece of immature prose! "She" takes on a winding narrative-story. The author wastes a lot of words on irrelevant topics. These descriptions have not highlighted the theme, but such mode of wasteful description is a common mistake made by new authors.
The theme of "She" is about the painful suffering by a woman under the remaining poison of feudal society. Originally, such a subject matter was of considerable value, but in the environment of the present day era, this subject has lost its importance. In other words, even if a better novel was written on this theme, it would not stimulate much responses. Undoubtedly, "She" still has the value of exposing the remaining poison of feudal society.
"Love Talk at Meeting Place" is fully characterized by tragedy. The author also doesn’t sufficiently emphasize optimism. This is probably affected by the current environment. The author should reflect upon this.
The strengths of Li Li's works are her grasp of personal experience and description are realistic. From "She" to "She Who Is Dead", we can infer the author's humility and sentiments of hard work. The shortcoming is the writing technique. This can be trained through learning.
To sum up the above, although Li Li's works cannot be said to have achieved anything, in our lonely literary world, having a woman who speaks her own independent words from an independent standpoint is worthy of our encouragement.
