Features: Classics are the treasures left behind by time's washing, portraits of humanity, and annotations on human nature. The significance of classics lies in their freshness with repeated readings, remaining an unchanging landscape on the bookshelves of readers, no matter how time flows. In the ever-changing space and time, in the irreversible process of life, classics are the words, sounds, and expressions that have conquered time. Those sincere statements, those fearless cries, those reflections on the human spirit, awaken our past hopes, inspire our current courage, and free us from emptiness and vanity, no longer doubting the future. These figures of wisdom and their timeless words purify our souls, our spirits, and teach us what can be missed but not erased, what is fleeting yet precious.
The authors included in "Insights into Masterpieces of Classic Fiction" are all scavengers and pioneers of modern Chinese literature, as well as experimenters and practitioners of various new artistic forms. No wonder Shi Zhecun, with a touch of pride, once told me that the various so-called artistic explorations of his younger contemporaries in the 1980s, especially their attempts at many "avant-garde" modernist techniques like symbolism, impressionism, and stream of consciousness, were nothing new. "Indeed," he said, "every era deserves its own literature. But classic literature belongs not only to its own time but also to later generations of readers who can appreciate and share in the artistic resonance of the classics.
This book includes the following novellas: The Silkworm, The Stamp, The Fate of the Ink Cart, The Captive, Under the Fence, Banishment, Rainy Night, Faith, The Petunia, By the Wayside, and Companion Stars.
