创作阐述

This is an existentialist satirical fable with a melancholic air. The protagonist, Goethe Wang, is full of flaws and in a deep moral dilemma.

故事大纲

The young and famous writer Goethe Wang is in the midst of the most difficult crisis of his life: his mother, the author behind his previous works, suddenly falls ill, bringing his creative career to an end, as he had no talent at all. At this time, he meets the talented poet "Fool", who is handicapped, and secludes him in his house, tricking "Fool" into using his poems as his own, so as to make himself famous again in the literary world. However, the "Fool" gradually loses his inspiration for the streets after being trapped in the house for a long period of time, while Goethe Wong, while taking advantage of the "Fool's" talent, slowly reveals behavioral disorders similar to those of the latter in his body. ......
