Features: Mao Dun once said, reading Lu Yin's works is "like breathing the air of the May Fourth period again." Sadness is the main theme in some of Lu Yin's important works, and its position in Lu Yin's novels is just like the role of maternal love in Bing Xin's works. The women in Lu Yin's novels seem to be the predestined souls of our present lives. In "The Diary of a mistress," Lu Yin fully depicts the agony of a mistress's obsessive love. Lu Yin truly understands the hearts of women; sometimes, the hardest thing for women to overcome and face is actually themselves.
