The narrator stands as a spokesman for an indigenous nation that has been overrun and abused by imperialist colonizers. He recalls the deep beauty of his homeland in a lyrical and stream-of-consciousness way, and accuses imperialists and chauvinists, mainly in the Western world, of exploiting and alienating the simple creatures of this nation. When the indigenous civilization met the Western civilization, under the strong impact of the economy, military, technology and civilization of the Western industrial civilization, the indigenous civilization retreated and died. People were forced to leave their homeland, their familiar production methods and daily routines, and go to the Western civilized world to earn wages and make a living. While describing this change, the author also brings up a global dilemma we are facing today: forced migration.

Chekhov had many notebooks, which contained momentary feelings he jotted down in his life, rough drafts, sketches of future works, reading experiences, and best practices copied from other writers' books. The notes are not only a memorandum of his literary creation, but also an index of his mature works. Ten years after his death, his wife Knibil made the "Chekhov's Notes" after rigorous selection and organization and made it public. Woolf's husband Leonard once co-translated "Notes" into English and published it. The Chinese translation was first released in 1953. With the fate of the translator Jia Zhifang, it was buried in the library for nearly thirty years until it was reprinted in 1982. In his words, the fate of this translation was also the fate of his life.
