The Cambridge I Know (Second Edition)

This book is a collection of Xu Zhimo's essays, selected by the editors. It includes writings that analyze Xu Zhimo's unique thoughts, as well as pieces that are more experimental. From these texts, we can see the author's exploration of his own emotions, as well as his attempts and experiments in artistic expression. Most of the works compiled in this book were written in the 1920s, at the beginning of the vernacular movement. Xu Zhimo's writing was already quite modern and modernistic, and his mature writing style and rigorous structure still do not feel outdated even when reread today.
