Abstract

From the earliest reflections on the urbanization of Hong Kong to the proliferation of new generation writers in Hong Kong in the 1970s and 1980s, the sense of localization gradually deepened, and then the sense of impact brought by the return of Hong Kong further stimulated the local identity and the defense of local culture, the development of Hong Kong literature has also flashed its own glory and set up a flag that distinguishes it from other literatures. Therefore, this paper intends to take the novel “Counterparts” as an example in the description of Hong Kong literature to explore the impact of the development of prosperous Hong Kong literature in the process of socialization and the identity of Hong Kong people as revealed in the literary novels, so as to gain a deeper understanding and empathy towards Hong Kong and Hong Kong literature.
