Zhong Xiaoyang is known for her many stories based on love themes but Whispering ”Zhen Zhen” is by no means a typical story of Zhong's nor is it widely known amongst local readers and those in Taiwan. Yet I still choose to closely study this novel for a few reasons. First of all, I opine that although Zhong's works are not necessarily tied to any specific times, Whispering ”Zhen Zhen” dose project a strong sense of ”Hong-Kongness”. Secondly, although the story merely evolved around the love between two lovers that faded away as they gradually grew up, one will find from the private memories of the male protagonist traces of collective memories and passion pertaining only to Hong Kong in the 60s and 70s of last century, meaning the story has subtly transformed into a novel characterized by the unique cultural context of Hong Kong. Written in the 1980s, the nostalgia sketched in plain style had prompted Whispering ”Zhen Zhen” to stand above all other overly nostalgic cultural products emerged since the late 20(superscript th) century. Whispering ”Zhen Zhen” is indeed worthy of study in contrast to Hong Kong novels of the same category.
