In 1920, as a war correspondent, Babel followed the First Cavalry Army of the Soviet Red Army commanded by Budyonny in its attack on Poland. The war lasted three months. Babel witnessed the last large-scale and unprecedentedly brutal cavalry battle in European history and in human history. From 1923 to 1924, he successively wrote more than 30 short and concise articles based on this campaign, including battlefield sketches and military stories. This is "Cavalry Army". This song was the swan song of the Soviet-Polish War that shocked the world and was a best-seller in Europe and the United States. It is not only a record of civilization and violence, conquest and resistance by a Jewish scholar with glasses, but also a biography of a domineering, heroic, and rugged Cossack cavalry soldier.

They are homeless people, unemployed workers, and drug addicts. They live in no fixed place and live in distress.

He spent all day as a boxer in the theater, supporting actors and actresses, playing mahjong all night long, indulging in banquets all day long, drunk and dreaming, and tried to achieve his goal of becoming an official through nepotism. Unexpectedly, he was tricked by others, and finally achieved nothing. Later, under the persuasion of a close friend, I finally woke up and started a new life. "Zhao Ziyue" is Lao She's transitional work toward maturity. It uses a tone of laughter and scolding to create the image of Zhao Ziyue, a confused college student who has neither the determination to do good nor the courage to do evil in the era of new and old changes in China. It depicts the muddled, despicable and despicable life of a group of college students in the rooftop apartment of Drum Tower in Beijing in the 1920s. "Divorce" was completed in 1933.

"Divorce" truly describes the bankruptcy of "sons and daughters of old China" in civil society like Brother Zhang who follow the conservative mediocre philosophy, and the tragedy of their failure to comply with their destiny.

"A Good Couple" describes the trivial life between the capable geisha Choko and the swinger Rageyoshi. The author uses extremely calm writing to fictionalize the extremely ordinary and trivial real life of a couple. In the novel, eating, drinking, urinating, birth, old age, illness and death are equally important. The seemingly blabbering contains the beauty of disillusionment and sadness that makes people unable to put it down. The living conditions of the common people are nothing more than this, a place full of chicken feathers, desolate and happy. This book also includes many novels such as "The Good Couple", "The Smell", "Lose", "Seamless", "Nostalgia", "Fireflies", "Luminous Insects", etc., All of which are wonderful works by Oda Sakunosuke. In this publication, in addition to correcting some mistranslations and omissions in the previous edition, the author also added an additional chapter "The Good Couple", which satisfies the regret that "The Good Couple" did not have an ending. This article was newly discovered in Japan in 2007 in Oda Sakunosuke's manuscript, and this time it is translated into Chinese for the first time.
