Many of Shen Congwen s famous novels are written with the bacground of beautiful countryside in western Hunan. In the 'Recollections of West Hunan(English Version)', he describes his childhood and the local people's lives, customs, love, legends, superstitions, uncivilized chivalry as well as their crude justice. Although sometimes these works make readers sad and fearful, most of them are full of pastoral atmosphere.
沈从文很多有名的小说均以湘西美丽的乡村为背景。在这部作品集中他讲述了他的童年时光和当地人们的生活、习俗、爱情、传奇、迷信以及未开化的骑士精神和粗暴的正义。这些作品虽然有时候让人感到悲伤和恐惧，但绝大部分都充满了田园气息。
