《女儿谷:1937》是我国为数不多的长篇文化人类学小说,它借助于情节,形象再现了四川鲜水河扎坝一带的民族风情,塑造了各具特色的人物形象,揭示其性格的深层结构,其独特的走婚文化值得反思。

As a rare work in China, The Valley of Women： 1937 is a full-length novel based on cultural anthropology. By taking advantage of the plot, the novel shows the ethnic minority features in the Zhaba region along the Xianshui River in Sichuan Province, portrays various distinctive fgures, and reveals the inner structures of the personalities. The unique culture of male-leaving marriage deserves refection.
