By focusing on each of the following themes of zhiqing literature - heroism and idealism, suffering and internal transformation, the loss of innocence or the moral dilemma, love and cultural difference, sexual and spiritual oppression, zhiqing/peasant relations, awareness of the relationship between man and nature and the conflict between the desire to leave the countryside and the attachment to it - this work addresses the question of how the zhiqing view their rustication.
