Synopsis

Among Ba Jin's many novels, "The Torrent Trilogy", which consists of three novels: "Home", "Spring" and "Autumn", is the most accomplished and influential work. "The Torrent Trilogy" is set in the Chengdu area of Sichuan in the early 1920s after the May 4th Movement. It describes the history of the collapse of a large feudal family (the Gao family) in the new revolutionary period. The work unfolds the entire family life of a feudal bureaucrat and ruthlessly exposes the decadence of the feudal landlord class and the hypocrisy and cruelty of feudal ethics. "Selected Works of Ba Jin (Volume 3)" is "Autumn" in "The Torrent Trilogy".

Reader comments

This book made me feel the complexity and cruelty of feudal families, and also made me cherish my current life more. I feel like I am like some of the characters in the book, who have gone through all kinds of hardships in love, but have become stronger because of it. At the same time, this book also reminds me of "A Dream of Red Mansions". They are both works that describe feudal families, and both have profound ideological connotations and delicate emotional expressions. I really like Ba Jin's works. His words always touch my heart.
