下功夫，读原典——打开现代中国的一种方式，是打开现代文学

　　“文学史的大厦，主要是靠作家，特别是大作家、经典作家支撑的；而作家的主要价值体现，就是他的作品文本。离开了作家、作品这两个基本要素，就谈不上文学史。”

　　本书以“现代文学三十年”发展脉络为基本框架，以“作家作品为中心”，精选45位作家、60多篇作品，以文本细读的方式，回到文学阅读与研究的起点，回归文学本身。以系统的知识梳理与讲解，带你认识、了解现代文学，走进中国现代文学的世界。

　　一部有“文学味儿”的、“有声的”的文学史

　　从《新青年》杂志诞生，现代文学三十年，既有“鲁（迅）、郭（沫若）、茅（盾）、巴（金）、老（舍）、曹（禺）”，也有沈从文、萧红、张爱玲、赵树理、丁玲、钱锺书、废名、汪曾祺……整个现代文学史就是一部现代中国人的心灵史，是现代作家作为现代中国人、现代中国知识分子，对中国社会变革与转向作出内心反应和审美反应的历史。

　　本书搭配有年代感满满的作家照片墙、丰富的人物时间线、清晰的文学家族树，同时还配有钱老原声朗读“国民级文学经典”音频——在钱老的声音与文字中，感受文学的激情与力量。

　　一部极具钱理群研究特色的文学史

　　“整本书有800多页，讲到张爱玲才只是400页。换句话说，40年代占了这本文学史的一半篇幅。很少有这样处理的，没有一个人像他这么重视40年代文学。”（许子东语）

　　在本书中，钱老倾注了最多精力、最大深情的，就是40年代的文学。用将近一半的篇幅，钱老探讨了40年代特殊的战争环境养育出的大批作家与作品，使之成为这本“个人文学史”的一大特色。
