Drum Calligraphy Artist (luo Erchun Illustrated Edition)

Lao She wrote it in New York between 1948 and 1949. Because the Chinese original manuscript was lost, it was re-translated into Chinese by Ma Xiaomi based on the English translation of The Drum Singers. This book tells the story of the suffering experience of the Dagu calligraphy artist Fang Baoqing's family: Baoqing's brother Baosen was killed by the Japanese army; his daughter Xiulian was ruined by Zhang Wen after her marriage to the progressive writer Meng Liang fell through; and her married daughter Dafeng was also abandoned. "Artists of Drum Calligraphy" tells the story of old-style artists pursuing a new life in the storm of the Anti-Japanese War. It presents the true image of revolutionaries and calls for the arrival of New China.
