About This Novel

This volume collects novels serialized in Hong Kong newspapers and published in books from 1942 to 1949, including a total of thirteen works by eleven writers including Lun Lun, Huang Guliu, Sima Wensen, Chen Canyun, Dai Wangshu, and Mao Dun. During this period, Hong Kong literature experienced the turbulence of the war period, the restrictions of the occupation period, the ideological disputes between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China, and the expectations of the new era. In addition to the existing realistic or epitome of the political environment, there are also traces of literature reflecting the people's livelihood under the cracks of the times. In addition to possessing a certain artistic level, the selected works generally reflect the flow and intersection of northern and southern literati in newspapers and periodicals at that time. Therefore, the author's identity is not limited to "Hong Kong writers" who were born and raised in Hong Kong or have stayed in Hong Kong for a long time. There are also contributions from writers who come and go intermittently or short-term transit. The content is not limited to the various aspects of life that took place in Hong Kong, but also includes the records, nostalgia and imagination of literati from the south about the mainland and even the Nanyang region through novels.
