Features: The "century elder" Ba Jin is one of the few outstanding writers in the history of modern Chinese literature. His works once had the most young readers at the time. He was also an selfless editor and publisher, and an accomplished translator. This book combines a chronological and thematic narrative to present the winding yet rich life of Ba Jin. He climbed the steps of anarchism towards the light, becoming a true humanitarian, idealist, and nationalist. The book not only highlights Ba Jin's brilliance but also faithfully portrays his confusion, loss, and eventual return. The content is rich and concise, with simple and fluent prose. Upon finishing, a believable image of Ba Jin will stand before us.
