About This Novel

Dao Erden looks at history upside down and talks about the ancients in a tricky way; he combines the "literary" of Li Ling and the "martial arts" of Wang Xiaobo. This book is a collection of historical and cultural essays by Dao Erden. It uses an alternative perspective and sharp writing to rewrite various characters and anecdotes in history. Dao Erden's writing style is calm and measured, not extravagant, and only stops when it is good. It is often mistaken for profoundness. In fact, what he pursues is either profound or cunning. "From the perspective of ordinary people, during the Shunkang period, except for the many braids on the head, life was not much different from before. Customs remained the same, human relations remained the same, and tofu still tasted the same as before." "The rich man sent his son to study and become an official. A fat and white boy went out and came back and became a Confucian scholar." "There are ghosts at home and gods on the mountain, and you can't afford to offend anyone. So you go to the temple to burn incense, go to the temple to ask for fortune-telling, and there are hundreds of miscellaneous gods. You have to kowtow. This is because the meniscus of the ancients was easily injured."

I like every book written by Dao Erden. Reading the history he writes always opens people's minds. It is less dogmatic and boring of textbook history and more reflective and dialectical about people and society.
