Features: "October Classics" Series is a collection of selected works from the 20+ years since the founding of "October" magazine. These works once caused a sensation and generated significant social impact during their time of publication. The series is divided into seven volumes, including five volumes of mid-length fiction, one volume of short fiction, and one volume of essays. The series is edited by renowned scholar Professor Xie Mian and literary critics Meng Fanhua, Chen Xiaoming, He Shaojun, and Cheng Guangwei. The design of the series is unique—it is not only an excellent collection of works but also includes self-reflections by the authors on their creative experiences, old photographs of the authors from that era, as well as insightful critiques of the works by the critics.
