Zhang Shengyou, Editor-in-chief Jiang Hexin

302K07

To boil the sea into salt and to pick out gold from the sand, this book selects 100 fine essays by nearly a hundred top writers of the 20th century, each of which can be called an intoxicating beauty. The masterpiece of "analyzing meanings and principles in subtle details, refining words and sentences in the hair" reflects to a certain extent the achievements of Chinese prose creation in the 20th century and represents the level of an era. In order to compile beautiful essays that are truly passed down from generation to generation, and to make hundreds of Chinese "classic" essays worthy of their name, we adhere to our own ethics and conscience. Don't choose works that are against your will, works that follow the crowd, criticize others, make false claims, self-admiring, and moan without any reason. There will never be a trace in this book. After five additions and deletions, and repeated deliberation, what readers see is a "beautiful, interesting, and truthful" selection of Chinese prose for a century.
