He is called ”the son of dragon” among the authors of Taiwan literature. His works are as good as Lu Xun's and Xu Zhi-mo's.This essay points out that among the authors of Taiwan literature, Zhu Dian-ren is one of the few ones that are not deceived by the false appearances of capitalism. He is also the best author that can comprehend the both sides of ”modernity.” He not only uses the progressive thinking to criticize the feudalistic tradition but also notices that Taiwan society faces the crisis of the collapse of ethical values and the subject of culture. In his novels, he portrays a peaceful, mutual-cooperative, wealth-sharing society. He shows the critical spirit and idealism of an intellectual. He is worth the respect of re-knowing.
