This book is the earliest collection of short stories by Lu Yin, the first-generation famous female writer during the May Fourth Movement. Among them, "Old Friend on the Seaside" is Lu Yin's masterpiece of short stories in her short writing career of more than ten years. The work describes the youth of the May Fourth period, who were naive and romantic, weaving a future kingdom of freedom with fantasy. However, he deeply felt the loneliness of the world and the misfortune of life, so his mood became very sentimental and pessimistic. The entire collection of novels seems to be made up of sentimental youth and countless teardrops, and has great appeal. The nature of the autobiography more truly reflects the ideological status of intellectuals looking for a way out after the "May Fourth Movement", and it also bears the mark of the ideological changes during the ebb of the "May Fourth Movement". It expresses the dilemma that young people like her face in the context of the times, the huge conflict between thought, life, love and reality, and the irresolvable sadness in their hearts.
