This title comes with an introduction by Craig Raine. Three short novels show Golding at his playful, ironic and mysterious best. In The Scorpion God we see the world of ancient Egypt at the time of the earliest pharaohs. Clonk Clonk is a graphic account of a crippled youth's triumph over his tormentors in a primitive matriarchal society. And Envoy Extraordinary is a tale of Imperial Rome where the emperor loves his illegitimate grandson more than his own arrogant, loutish heir. "The writing is brilliant, so fluent and stylish that the stories read themselves like a dream. "(Daily Telegraph). "As ambitious and as engrossing as the best of Golding. "(Financial Times).

For as long as Emmeline can remember, she's longed to leave the isolated world of the settlement and explore the wilderness that calls to her in her dreams. And now that the Council has fallen, she will finally, finally get that chance. With First Peoples guide Matisa at her side, Emmeline rallies a brave group to join her on her quest into the unknown, including her beloved Kane and his two younger brothers. But the journey soon proves far more dangerous than Emmeline anticipated—with warring clans, slavers, colonists, disease, and natural disasters seemingly at every turn. After putting so many lives in danger, she starts to doubt everything she once knew. Did she make the right choice to leave the settlement—and can her relationship with Kane survive the ordeal? Matisa insists that to set things right and to fight the evil that is bringing all this danger and turmoil to the forest, Emmeline must journey to Matisa's people—even if that means leaving Kane behind.

本书为“辽宁社会科学院学者文库”著作之一，收集了高翔先生新时期以来公开发表在诸多学术媒体的论文30余篇，分为东北现代文学研究，文艺生态学思想研究、学术传播研究、文学与美学研究等四部分。高翔先生是东北现当代文学研究耕耘最久的学者，在搜集研读东北文学史料方面花费了大量时间，投入了较多的精力，也取得了较多的研究成果。本书“东北现代文学研究”编就是这些成果的具体体现，也是本文集最鲜明的特色。如，他对伪满时期的刊物《新青年》（沈阳），仔细辨析其政治上的附逆及部分文学作品的媚敌与遵循现实主义创作原则的文学之间的较大反差，揭示了在伪满洲国政治高压下的双文化选择，并抓住典型个案深入挖掘，展开重要的文学问题的思考。
