AB - Hong Kong representative writer Ye Si's novel Paper Cuts depicts the plight of two very different young women in Hong Kong. Through viewing and reflecting on their origins, occupations, cultural backgrounds, and life experiences, it draws out the complex and diversified social landscape of Hong Kong, and elaborates on the state of Hong Kong people's existence and the heavy contradictions in the city of Hong Kong. As a Flâneur in the twentieth century, Ye Si has always observed the city from a critical perspective, avoiding Hong Kong's culture from falling into an absolute dichotomy mode and advocating the uniqueness of Hong Kong as a cross-cultural city. In his works, he explores the intersection of tradition and modernity, East and West, individual and collective in Hong Kong, reflecting the hybridity of culture and identity in colonial Hong Kong. The third space created by Ye Si is not only a reflection of cultural fusion, but also a critique and reconstruction of colonial history. It can be said that Ye Si's urban writing provides a new way of scrutinizing Hong Kong literature.
