Massacre is an insurmountable psychological barrier that all humans have been faced with. For those who have been dead, the pain may have disappeared immediately, while for those who have luckily survived, the pain may become the lingering trauma. Numerous readers are again fascinated by Alex Miller’s new novel—Landscape of Farewell. This seemingly simple story reveals a profound truth with its overwhelming power. In order to step out of the shadow of “joint enterprise” and “group guilt”, those indirect participants in the massacre must be bravely faced up with the history with their own introspection and welcome the future with positive attitude. The author of the article expects to share her experience of reading the novel with other readers so as to have a new interpretation of the theme of the novel through logical analysis of the novel itself and from the perspective of historical introspection.
