The first of the four classic Chinese classics, it takes the rise and fall of the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue as the background, and uses the love tragedies of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai as the main line to depict the ups and downs of the women in the Grand View Garden. The poems, lyrics, music, food, clothing, architecture and gardens in the book all highlight Chinese aesthetics and profoundly expose the constraints of feudal ethics on human nature. It is an immortal literary masterpiece.
Good, good, good, good
A very good novel, highly recommended.
