The Legend of Hulan River
by Xiao Hong
About This Novel
"The Story of Hulan River" is a "memory" novel full of childlike innocence, poetic interest and agility written by Xiao Hong looking back on her childhood at the end of her life after many years of wandering. She used painterly language to outline the bright red, green and childlike vitality of the gloomy era. With simple and unpretentious brushwork, she recorded the fleeting warmth and tranquility of the tragic life, reflecting the unfortunate fate of the Chinese people and the helpless choices of intellectuals in that era. "The Field of Life and Death" is Xiao Hong's famous work and one of the classics of modern Chinese literature in the 20th century. The work is set in the countryside near Harbin and tells the story of the changes of three families. It provides a thorough and profound interpretation of these ancient themes of life and death, human nature and survival. Lu Xun praised it as a powerful picture that depicts the northern people's strength against life and struggle against death. This book integrates Xiao Hong's two classic works, echoing each other and complementing each other, and can better demonstrate the value of Xiao Hong's literary works and the complete style of the era they depict.
