This book is the lingering complex in Wang Yuewen's novels, and this complex is deeply reflected in "Between Day and Night". The protagonist Guan Yinda, who has the temperament of a poet, is busy in secular life. His scholarly nature makes him stand out and win favor, but it also makes him encounter difficulties in real life... Stick to it or give up? This is a question that has puzzled Chinese literati for thousands of years. In "Between Day and Night", the author also puts forward the confusion and difficulties faced by contemporary literati.
Reader comments
Rather than saying that Guan Yinda is a contemporary bureaucrat who is "obsessed with officialdom", it is better to say that he is a traditional scholar who still adheres to the traditional literati principle of "having great talent can help the world, and being independent can take care of oneself." What shaped his political character was the fact that he was fortunate enough to be a subordinate of the Confucian scholar Tao Fan when he entered society. Because of this, the dangers of human nature and the subtleties of officialdom have in turn become obstacles to his difficult and bumpy career, which can lead to success and failure. When he came from the morning light in "The West Wind Courtyard", he was still a fledgling young man. When he came to "The West of the Night", he had already gone through many vicissitudes. After Xizhou was unexpectedly elected, from now on, he never knew whether it was "the ending or the beginning". But after all, he is not only full of beauty, but also full of passion and ambition. This is the Guan Yinda who everyone hopes for.
This book truly depicts the complexity of officialdom and the multifaceted nature of human nature, which resonates with me. Just like Guan Yinda in the book, we will also encounter various dilemmas and choices in the workplace. I particularly disliked the worldly and cunning character, the things he did were revolting. However, Chen Yongdong, the old man with long braids, left a deep impression on me. I admire his persistence and uniqueness. This book made me think about the meaning and value of life. Should we, like Guan Yinda, maintain our true colors amidst the chaos of the world?
The writing is good and has an ancient charm, but this kind of virtual writing is in keeping with the times.

It is a good book among Wang Yuewen's works

Wang Yuewen's works must be of high quality.
Very nice! Hope to see the sequel in the future!
The structure of this book is clear and the main line is clear. It does not burn your brain or twist your brain. It can be used as a recreational book for non-official people to understand the official culture. The details can make you smile and it is worth reading.
Good. It surpasses several official articles I have read earlier.
This book is actually several novellas written by Wang Yuewen, which he contrived into a novel. But also smooth.
The psychological activities are deeply portrayed, and the officialdom is really dangerous. They are all old actors and they play political tricks. It is thrilling and soul-stirring!
