In Brief: "A Dream of Red Mansions" is a story focusing on a high spiritual love story that happened in a noble family, but what it wants to speak is much far beyond a love story theme. The author's attempt is to depict a macro-viewed picture which leads us to the very deep insight of life itself in complexity and profoundity, and not another Chinese classic writer have been more successful at doing this than him. From innocent to sophisticated, from prosperous to desolate, from enthusiastic to disillusioned; a dream losing at some moment of life course could have been anyone of us' experience, even though we are not nobles.
