Abstract In response to the spiritual crisis of enslaved humanity and mental domestication (which Foucault calls the appearance of standard men) brought about by rationalism worship, contemporary writers leave behind grand narration and turn to take “mini-narration”, making literature no longer statements of knowledge or philosophy, but individual discourse of writers to express their sentiments and perception. Therefore, “mini-narration” is a way of expression for writers to approach this “absurd” and “illusive” world and restore their own existence, which also reveals their attempts to look anew at their efforts in a new symbol relation structure. Thus, innovation of literary narration is not only a so-called experiment on narrative tactics or forms, but also an anti-entropy narration based on belief of formalism. Mini-narration allows the writer to “intrude into” the script, and make the script his personal utterance to the world and time, but objectively redefines literature and even the world.
