Mao Zedong read a lot of books and loved reading all his life. As early as his teenage years, Mao Zedong was familiar with famous Chinese classical novels such as "A Dream of Red Mansions", "Water Margin", "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Journey to the West", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and "The Romance of the Gods". In the next half century, he still couldn't put it down. Until the last years of his life, he read it over and over again during his illness, and often talked and commented with great interest on it with the comrades around him. This book focuses on Mao Zedong's annotations, comments and anecdotes about classical masterpieces such as "A Dream of Red Mansions", "Water Margin", "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Journey to the West", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and "The Romance of the Gods". It not only allows readers to learn the essence of traditional Chinese culture, but also learn the reading methods and wisdom of great men.
