by Su Manshu
About This Novel
The work contains a series of letters written by Su Manshu to his close friend Liu Yazi. The time span in the letter is large, from the year of Gengxu (1910) when Su Manshu fell ill in Java, to the year of Jiayin (1914) when he later studied and recuperated in Japan, and then traveled around the country. The content of the letter covers his concern for the current situation, his longing for friends, his own health (Sumanshu is in poor health, suffering from hemoptysis, malaria, intestinal disease, brain pain, overeating, etc.), As well as his progress in learning Sanskrit and translation; from time to time, the letter reveals complex emotions about wandering, financial constraints, and eagerness to return to his country. It is precious first-hand information to understand Su Manshu.
