本书虽写了贾、史、王、薛四大家族的衰亡史,并意蕴着反统、反封建的初步民主主义光芒,但却是充满着对未来自本阶级的饱经沧桑、洞悉出隐的无情的否定和判决,且带着浓厚的挽歌色调。

První díl románu, velké encyklopedie čínského života a kultury 18. stol.

Una grande comunità matriarcale in cui si muovono, con l'eleganza di miniature, fanciulle fortunate o sfortunate, serve o padrone, mogli o concubine. Un'atmosfera rarefatta in cui, allegre o dolenti, fluttuano figure eteree, tra spettacoli e indovinelli, visite all'imperatore ed elaborati culti religiosi. Attraverso l'aura fiabesca il lettore occidentale però scopre attonito la realtà di una società complessa, imbrigliata dalla burocrazia, sottoposta a un rigido codice d'onore e vincolata a convenienze e usi immutabili, destinati a far soffrire. Fra i tanti personaggi a metà tra figurine e individui, compare Paoyü, il protagonista, il "diverso", che tira a sé le fila della narrazione e regge, come il principe Myskin nell'Idiota di Dostoevskij, gli equilibri precari dell'esistenza che, suo malgrado, si trova a vivere.

"The Story of the Stone" (c. 1760) is one of the greatest novels of Chinese literature. The first part of the story, The Golden Days, begins the tale of Bao-yu, a gentle young boy who prefers girls to Confucian studies, and his two cousins: Bao-chai, his parents' choice of a wife for him, and the ethereal beauty Dai-yu. Through the changing fortunes of the Jia family, this rich, magical work sets worldly events - love affairs, sibling rivalries, political intrigues, even murder - within the context of the Buddhist understanding that earthly existence is an illusion and karma determines the shape of our lives.
