About This Novel
"Superfluous Words" are several retrospective and introspective articles written by Qu Qiubai on the eve of his death. The general title quotes "Those who know me, tell me I am worried; those who don't know me, tell me what I want" from Shuili in the Book of Songs as the inscription. Qu Qiubai presents the complex inner world and tortuous mental journey of a communist, such as romance, enthusiasm, persistence, depression, confusion, and determination, in his true colors in a confession of more than 20,000 words. The unique value of "Superfluous Words" lies in its frankness and truth. Readers can see a three-dimensional "person" in it. A respectable revolutionary leader and amiable intellectual made a frank deathbed confession, insisted on telling the truth, had the courage to self-analyze, and showed his pure and sincere heart. In addition, it also includes a number of literary and theoretical works created in different periods that criticize current ills and seek to save the nation.
