Collected by Zhou Zuoren: Past Work
by Zhou Zuoren
About This Novel
"Zhou Zuoren's Collected Works: Past Work" contains fifteen articles written by Zhou Zuoren before and after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War (April to December 1945). The articles continue the style since the 1940s. One type still writes "leisurely" talk, describes scenes, objects, comments, and eloquent stories, such as "Poems about Bamboo Branches", "Stone Road", and "Stories of Dongchangfang"; the other type continues to "seriously" explore ideas, trace their roots, and speak loudly, such as "Mortal Faith" and "Work of the Past". "Composition" and "Articles of Two Ghosts" play an important role in the history of Zhou Zuoren's writing thoughts; in memory of three old friends, Chen Duxiu, Qian Xuantong, and Liu Bannong, through excerpts and annotations of their official slips, the past interactions and situations are described, and the feeling of "flowing water and setting sun" is fully reflected in the writing, which opens up a new way for writing about people.
