About This Novel

The story all takes place in a teahouse in Beijing. People come and go in the teahouse, and people of all colors and religions gather together. A big teahouse is like a small society. Mr. Lao She captured the characteristics of this scene and highly condensed the time span of half a century and 60 to 70 primary and secondary characters into the teahouse, showing life scenes in three eras after the failure of the Reform Movement of 1898 in the late Qing Dynasty, the period of the Beiyang warlord separatism in the early years of the Republic of China, and the eve of the fall of the Kuomintang regime. He summarized the sharp opposition and conflicts between various classes and forces in Chinese society, and revealed the historical destiny of semi-feudal and semi-colonial China.
