Features: From the founding of the People's Republic of China to 1966, it was a peak period for the creation and publication of long novels in China. Over a decade, a large number of works were produced, among which dozens had a far-reaching influence and reached the height of their time. These works adhered to the principles of socialist realism, using enthusiastic and simple artistic methods to celebrate the arduous struggles and vibrant spirit of the Chinese people during different historical periods, including the War of Liberation, the War of Resistance against Japan, the liberation war, and the construction of socialism. They represented the highest achievements of long novel creation during that period and occupied an extremely important position in the history of contemporary Chinese literature. With their unique charm, they influenced generations of readers and have endured the test of time. To present a more complete picture of the development of contemporary long novels and the state of long novel creation during that period, we have specially compiled and published the series "Collected Masterpieces of Contemporary Chinese Long Novels."
1. The series is based on the "Selected Long Novels" published by our press in the 1950s and 1960s and the "Red Classics" series published in the 1990s, striving to include as many outstanding works as possible.
2. The works in the series were published roughly between 1949 and 1965, with some multi-volume works whose publication processes extended beyond this timeframe.
3. Due to various reasons, some works had multiple revised editions. For this publication, we selected the best versions and conducted proofreading by referring to other editions.
