About This Novel

"Camel Xiangzi" is one of Lao She's masterpieces. The novel describes the tragic story of Xiangzi, a rickshaw puller from the countryside, who experienced three ups and downs in Beiping during the warlord war in the 1920s. After three years of struggle, he finally bought a car of his own, but his good wishes always failed time and time again. In the end, his spiritual world completely collapsed and he became an insensitive walking zombie. It profoundly exposes the darkness of old China, accuses the ruling class of exploitation and oppression of workers, expresses the author's deep sympathy for the working people, and shows people the picture of the poor citizens at the bottom of Beijing living in an abyss of pain under the warlords' melee and dark rule. The work centers on Xiangzi, a rickshaw puller, and is intertwined with the secular customs of Beijing's poor society. The author uses realistic writing techniques and compassionate feelings to create a number of unforgettable artistic images such as Xiangzi and Huniu. This novel has an important position in the history of modern Chinese literature and has a high reputation around the world.
