家 (Family)

This hardcover edition shows signs of library use, including stickers and stamps from the Denver Public Library. The absence of a dust jacket and general wear is evident, typical for an ex-library copy. The binding is intact, and the pages are clean, though they may show some signs of age.

"家" (Family) by the renowned Chinese author 巴金 (Ba Jin) is a significant work in Chinese literature, first published in 1931. This edition was published by 人民文学出版社 (People's Literature Publishing House) in 1977, as indicated by the copyright page. The book is a hardcover and was previously part of the Denver Public Library collection, as evidenced by library markings. Ba Jin, a pivotal figure in Chinese literature, is known for his profound exploration of family dynamics and societal changes in early 20th-century China. This edition is a valuable piece for collectors interested in classic Chinese literature. The absence of a dust jacket and the library markings suggest a well-used copy, but it remains an essential piece for understanding Ba Jin's impact on literature.
