Yasushi Inoue¡¯s thoughts on fate originate from his personal experiences in his early years and his novels can be regarded as a projection of his personal experiences. In the story of Dunhuang, Yasushi Inoue¡¯s Chinese-themed historical novel, the word ¡°fate¡± is found everywhere. Also, the protagonist, Zhao Xingde, is not Yasushi Inoue himself, but is a shadow of him. Dunhuang has attracted a large number of readers from both China and Japan, not only because it evokes the readers¡¯ rich imagination of the western regions of China, but also due to the sigh of fate this novel embodies. %K Yasushi Inoue %K Dunhuang %K Fate %U http://www.oalib.com/paper/6795386
