Features: Zhu Ziqing, a renowned prose writer, poet, and scholar in modern Chinese literature. Throughout his life, Zhu Ziqing authored 27 works, nearly 2 million words, forming a valuable legacy in modern Chinese literature. Although his writings span a wide range of genres, including prose, poetry, literary criticism, and academic treatises, his works most admired by readers are still his prose. This book collects the essence of Zhu Ziqing's prose, with a few rational essays selected accordingly, such as short discussions on Chinese language teaching, reading guidance, and literary creation. These types of texts hold significant weight in Zhu Ziqing's creative career, and their exclusion would fail to provide a complete view of his "entire oeuvre." The book includes: Rushing Away, Songs, Qinhuai River under the Boat and Lantern Light, Traces of Wenzhou, Civilization on the River Boat, Women, The White People—God’s Pride! and more.
