Novel Monthly Report - 9th Baihua Award Nominated Works Collection: 9th Baihua Award Nominated Works Collection

Author: Editorial Department of "Novel Monthly"
Publisher:
Publishing Date: 2001-11-01
Features: The editorial format of this book is largely consistent with that of "Selected Works of Winners of the 'Baihua Award' of 'Novel Monthly'," and the entire book is still divided into two parts: Mid-Length Novels and Short Stories, with a total of 8 mid-length novels and 8 short stories included. Both the authors and their works are arranged in order of the number of votes received. This book presented to the readers can be considered a sister volume to "Selected Works of Winners of the 'Baihua Award' of 'Novel Monthly'." As is well known, the establishment of any award must specify the items, types, levels, and quantities of rewards, otherwise it cannot be implemented in practice. For this very reason, every award is inevitably marred by the of missing out on deserving works, and the "Baihua Award" of "Novel Monthly" is no exception. During each vote count to determine the winning works, there are several works that narrowly missed the prize by just a few votes, ten votes, or even just two or three votes. These works, whether in terms of ideological depth or artistic quality, are no less outstanding than the winning works. However, due to the limitation of the number of awards, this regrettable outcome has occurred.
