Mo Tuer
General Fiction莫吐儿
(us) Sholom-aleichem
This is a "wonderful work" that makes people "laugh and cry" when reading it (Golky's words), a "condensed Dickens or Mark Twain" (Xiao Qian's words). The author is Sholom Aleichem, a world cultural celebrity and famous Jewish writer. The novel tells the story of a nine-year-old Jewish boy and his family struggling to survive in poverty. Mo Tuer, who became an orphan, babysits children, sleeps with crazy old men, and runs around the streets selling homemade drinks and rat poison... The contrast between Mo Tuer's lively and naughty character and his poor life forms a unique humorous color and has shocking artistic power. After "Mo Tu'er" was published in China, it was enthusiastically praised by my country's older generation of great writers Cao Jinghua, Feng Zikai, Qian Zhongshu, Xiao Qian and others.
