About This Novel
This book contains more than 60 essences of prose by Mao Dun, a master of modern literature, including "Praise to Poplars", "Skylight", "Remembering Xian Xinghai", "Mountains and Rivers of the Earth", "Winter", etc. Some of the chapters have been selected as Chinese textbooks for primary and secondary schools and are literary classics that accompany the growth of a generation. Mao Dun's prose has formed a distinctive narrative method. He is good at using narrative techniques of using objects to express emotions and using reality to set off imaginary. His writing is delicate, profound and powerful. This book is both a "sketchbook" depicting the mountains and rivers of the motherland and a "notebook" reproducing Mao Dun's life history. It fully demonstrates Mr. Mao Dun's profound literary attainments and is a rare treasure in modern Chinese prose.
