About This Novel

This book brings together 31 short stories and 7 novellas by Yu Dafu. Yu Dafu is a famous novelist in modern China and plays an important role in the New Literature Movement. He advocated that literary works are "autobiographies" of the author. In his works, he unabashedly outlines his thoughts, feelings and life experiences. He also boldly describes the relationship between the sexes, reflecting the devastated fate of women and the deep pain of the lower class intellectuals. Literature transcends time and space. The author's sincere psychological descriptions and bold gender themes, his melancholy and sad writing style, prose-like writing and infatuated descriptions not only resonated with many young people at the time, but are also impressive today. The book is appended with a selection of letters written by Yu Dafu to Wang Yingxia, who was known as the most beautiful woman in Hangzhou at that time. The love words are sad and sincere, and have very high literary and artistic value, allowing people today to travel through more than half a century of time and space and experience the true love that they could die for her.
