Tea House (Lao She Illustrated Edition Classic Drama)

A microcosm of the times and an insight into human nature. "Teahouse" is like a vivid historical picture, showing the social changes in the three eras of old China. The small teahouse brings together people from all walks of life: The shrewd and capable teahouse owner struggled to survive in the tide of the times, constantly improving the teahouse but still unable to escape the twists and turns of fate. The words of an upright and patriotic person, "I love our country, but who loves me?" Expressed the helplessness and desolation of the patriotic people of that era. The ambitious national capitalists devoted themselves to saving the country through industry, but in the end they ended up in complete defeat. ... The fate of the characters in the teahouse reflects the darkness and decadence of society at that time. In turbulent times, ordinary people lived in poverty and suffered oppression. The stupidity of the rulers and the rampant corruption of corrupt officials have plunged society into endless suffering. In difficult situations, some people stick to kindness, some people go with the flow, and some people do whatever it takes for their own benefit. It allows us to see the complexity and multifaceted nature of human nature. I deeply feel the vicissitudes and sufferings of old China, and it also reminds us to cherish the current peace and prosperity. [Three core questions] 1.

This book is such a classic! Mr. Lao She is such a master. He portrays each character so deeply, as if these people are living around us. Moreover, the storyline is very compact, and the three-act play tells the story of China's changes in three eras. The most amazing thing is that the lines are both vivid and deep, which kept me thinking about it after watching it. This book is definitely worth reading again and again!

I synchronized the electronic version of the physical book I read, thinking that I could listen to the book and do things when I have no spare time, but I found that novels in this format are not suitable for listening (it sounds messy). It's beautiful, very beautiful. It has a deep core but is also interesting. The writing between people is expressive and natural. All of them are worthy of scrutiny.

During the Republic of China, people were in dire straits, with no food, water, or shelter. After the people were liberated from the fearful days, New China brought a stable life and a prosperous life. Cherish the present and live every day well.

Needless to say more about classics.
