Deep in the Night (collection of Popular Novels of the Republic of China·zhang Henshui Volume)
About This Novel
The novel describes the emotional entanglement between the coachman Ding Erhe and the singing queen Yuerong. The plot is twists and turns and exciting. It explores human nature deeply and thoroughly. The psychological portrayal of the hero and heroine is particularly delicate. It should be particularly pointed out that "Deep Night" was originally the title of a piece of "Yu Ji Dance" in the opera "Farewell My Concubine". Zhang Henshui ingeniously integrated this erhu music throughout the novel, becoming a link between the joys and sorrows of the hero and heroine and a clue to the development of the plot. Not only do most of the scenes in the novel take place in the deep night, but the tone of the novel is dark, cold and desolate. The "deep night" symbolizes the tragic fate of Ding Erhe and Wang Yuerong, revealing the cold darkness of society. In terms of the novel's ingenious conception, complete structure and rich characterization, "Deep Night" is superior to "The Cause of Laughter".
