Features: This book is one of the major series of contemporary Chinese social realistic fiction. The works collected in this book expose the ugly side of real society to readers, focusing on revealing and depicting, with a strong emphasis on exposing unsightly private lives. Some works describe the unspoken "rules" in official circles and the details of power struggles in a satirical and critical tone, with their focus centered on the clash of power and the of desires. In some cases, they even appreciate the cleverness and intelligence of corrupt methods. For these "exhibition-style" creations, we need to approach them with a cautious and discerning perspective.
