Book of Life (Complete Collection of Mao Dun Literature Award-Winning Works: Collector's Edition)

This book depicts many vivid characters in plain language and shows the characters' fate and choices under the changing times. The author's writing style is simple and unpretentious, but it makes people feel the power behind the words. The book's depiction of human nature and social reality is very profound and made me think more about life. Well worth reading!

This book describes multiple characters vividly and vividly on the page. Among them, the "Old Village Chief" and "Camel" are the most charming. The "old village chief" was a soldier. He lived a positive and dedicated life, doing things for the whole village. However, his wife did not know how to cherish him and had been fighting with him all his life, so the old village chief's married life was very bad. "Camel" is a smart, tough, and extremely capable person, but because he is too greedy, he forces his life to a dead end. Each person has his own destiny, which is directly related to his own character. At the same time, it is also inseparable from the social environment and the background of the times.

The fission of everyone's life in the book is very sad. Is this the true meaning of life? I interpret the fate of each character step by step out of curiosity. It's so beautiful and worth watching.

This book is well written, vivid, real, rich in language, and has a solid literary foundation. I appreciate the self-discipline and low-keyness of the protagonist. Although I have the same growth trajectory as the protagonist, I don't have the protagonist's brilliant record. In those days, it was difficult for a single woman to work hard in Shanghai. I studied financial management and accounting. If I had met the protagonist when I first entered the unknown Shanghai in 1995, it would have been another vigorous entrepreneurial venture. It is really full of emotions!

The portrayal of rural life and villagers is super good, but the modern life in the city is a bit worse. The description of the fortune-telling of the Book of Changes in the second half is too lengthy. Overall, it is great. I cried several times while watching it. It shows the characters in the changing times and is full of emotions.

What a wonderful journey life is... Yes! How wonderful the "journey" of life is - fleeting moments, vicissitudes of life, time passing by, things and people changing... You and I, mortals, only know how to come from the mother's belly and finally be buried in the loess...

Very beautiful and very sympathetic

Exaggerated and grotesque, yet true!

Vivid and touching, delicate writing style

Very beautiful and vividly written.

There is a sense of reality

The language is humorous and the style of speech is unique. It is like telling the people and things of Lao Zhang from the village next door and Lao Wang next door. It is worth watching.

The real hometown is in distant memories, a world that was nothing but existed.

When you go to school, it's nine years, not twelve years.

The writing is delicate and the trivial things in the countryside are vividly described, and the truth is full of sadness! The description of psychological conflicts is also quite realistic. I just read the beginning and already like this book.
