This book contains ten short stories. The author neither dwells on nostalgia and nihilism, nor shys away from the unknown and adventure. Using dreams as a metaphor for literature, the author breaks down the boundaries of the reading experience. Through fantastical imagination and allegory, the author creates writing experiments involving obstacles and leaps. In "Taming the Tiger," the tiger tamer struggles to communicate with his wife, and his communication with his daughter is on a different level. He is also in a state of self-criticism, confused and powerless about life, unable to even control himself, thus constantly indulging in conscious fantasies. "Hunting the Deer" explores the psychological impact of family education on children. The novel not only possesses fairytale qualities but also almost serves as a metaphor—a crisis-like metaphor between the bear and the deer, between "I" and "adults."

本书收录十篇小说, 作者不复述怀旧和虚无, 不回避未知和冒险, 以梦境比拟文学, 打破阅读体验的边界。在奇幻的想象和寓言中, 创造障碍与跳跃的写作实验。《驯虎》小说里的驯虎师与妻子已经难以交流, 跟女儿是另一种层面的难以交流; 他也处在自我危机中, 对生命既困惑又无力的时候, 自己也拿自己没办法, 所以不断沉溺于意识的幻想中。《猎鹿》探讨的是家庭教育对孩子的心理影响, 小说不但带有童话色彩, 而且几近于一个隐喻, 即熊与鹿, “我”和“成人”之间构成的一种危机般的隐喻。
