About This Novel
This book selects articles from Xia Wanchun, Song Lian, Shi Buhua, Huang Zongxi, Lin Zexu, Song Yingxing and others during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, including family letters, prefaces, explanatory essays, political commentaries, etc. Xia Wanchun is a young hero. "A Letter from the Mother in Prison" is written magnificently, with both blood and warmth, and both literary talent and personality. The family letter "Bie Di Wen" shows how people who have been baptized by abject poverty and humiliation never forget their original intentions and abstain from lust and greed. The author's memory and remembrance of his mother, as well as his description of her suffering, fatigue, and strength, are particularly tear-jerking. "Preface to the Lychee Picture" is an explanatory essay written by Bai Juyi. The wording is concise and accurate, and there are many things worth learning from in writing. A rhetorical question in "Yan Zi's Good Admonition" made the monarch repent and resolutely change his ways, which can be said to be the ultimate in eloquence.
