This famous autobiographical novel by Pa Chin exercised a most striking influence on China's youth after it first appeared in 1931. It is a searing exposure of a large disintegrating feudal household in China's turbulent twenties, with all its stupid cruelties and hypocritical conventions. The author tells of tragic love affairs and broken marriages, of those who struggle, cry out and go down in defeat - and of an awakening younger generation that fights back, breaking away from the old and decadent.
