About This Novel

Together with the previous "Yu Shi Ming Yan" and "Warning Words", it is collectively known as the "Three Yan". Among the "Three Yan", it is the most widely circulated, the most influential, and the most talked about. "Awakening the World" contains mostly mature story-telling novels, with a total of forty stories. Some of these stories reflect love and marriage, some condemn the darkness of officialdom, and some praise chivalry. The plots of the stories are bizarre and tortuous, the characters have distinctive personalities, and are full of fun, making them endlessly readable. This book provides a brief summary before each story, briefly introducing and commenting on the plot of the novel, to help readers better understand the story and comprehend its gist.
