About This Novel
"Pillow Essays" was first published by Shanghai Beixin Book Company in June 1929. It is paperback with rough edges. The binding design has its own characteristics. Secondly, the most important thing is that this is a unique collection of essays. Zhang Yiping clearly told readers in the preface that this book was written while he was recovering from illness. "I couldn't read any books and couldn't do anything. I was very bored lying in bed all day, so I picked up Note-Book and wrote a few sentences at random, which became such a thin volume "Pillow Essays."" Zhang Yiping also revealed that he "was encouraged by my cousin Lin Yu when I wrote this "Essays." He admitted that the book was "admittedly a shoddy and superficial product", but his interpretation was still very high, that is, it was "imitated in the style of "Shishuo Xinyu", recording the rich discussions of many teachers and friends." "Shishuo Xinyu" written by Liu Yiqing in the Southern Song Dynasty is a classic in ancient Chinese notebook literature.
