"Born Wife", written by Luo Shu when she was 33, describes a tragic woman who was sold by her husband but could not survive in her new home. After this novel was recommended by Ba Jin and published, it aroused strong repercussions in the literary world. Her works, like her person, are plain and introverted, but contain strong emotions. Every line is filled with concern for people and society, and her writing skills are not inferior to those of famous writers. But Luo Shu died of illness two years later. This book is a collection of her works, including four novels: "The Wife", "Orange", "Sister-in-law Liu" and "The Well Worker", as well as friends' memories of Luo Shu.
Reader comments
This book made me deeply understand the tragic fate of women in the old days. The characterization of the characters in the book is delicate and nuanced, especially the sentence "Now that things have happened, how can anyone be willing to go home in an empty sedan chair?" I felt the helplessness of the hero and the cruelty of reality. The author gives us a deeper understanding of the society of that era through words, and also makes us cherish our current life more. This is a great book worth reading!
The article is very short, and every sentence touches the heart. Why
