Features: Throughout history, how many exquisite prose pieces, like pearls, have shone brilliantly! The "Hundred Flowers Prose Series" may not claim to have strung them into a necklace, but here they are no longer scattered pearls but are more convenient to read and appreciate. The selected chapters focus on lyrical and narrative prose; the themes range from society and life to parting emotions and flowers and grass. The styles are both grand and unrestrained, as well as subtle and reserved. The "Hundred Flowers Prose Series" broadly gathers and inclusively embraces. It may not be called a "Gathering of Treasures," but the collected works still lack brilliance and reference. The "Hundred Flowers Prose Series" includes the "Ancient Prose Series," "Modern Prose Series," and "Contemporary Prose Series," all published in separate volumes, selected and compiled by different authors.
I. This set of "Modern Prose Series" is a part of the "Hundred Flowers Prose Series." It selects the renowned and outstanding works of prose writers from 1917 to 1949, compiled into individual volumes by author.
II. The selected authors are all famous prose masters of that era, and the chosen works are as much as possible in line with the development of their prose creation.
III. Each volume begins with an introductory preface of over ten thousand words, briefly introducing the author's level and, combined with the selected prose, analyzing and commenting on their artistic characteristics, creative development, and influence.
IV. The selected works are marked with the original publication source and date as much as possible; necessary annotations are also provided for particularly difficult-to-understand sections.
