An Unofficial History of Peking (Volume I)/春明外史-第一&amp, (Paperback)

"This novel, authored by Zhang Henshui, is a long fiction work centered on the journalist Yang Xingyuan, narrating his romantic experiences with Li Yun and emotional entanglements with Li Dongqing, reflecting the broad social life of that era.] The abundant poetry and letters in the novel serve as potent tools to unveil characters' inner worlds, blending the form of traditional literature with expressive functions that surpass it, all set against a grand backdrop that elevates it above ordinary chapter-based novels.]

本书是张恨水创作的一部长篇小说。小说以记者杨杏园为中心，叙述了他和梨云的恋爱经历以及与李冬青感情上的纠葛，借以反映当时广阔的社会生活。小说中大量的诗词、书简都成了展示人物内心世界的有力方式，既得了传统文学的外形，又有超越传统文学的表现功能，背景宏阔，这是胜过一般章回小说之处。
