此文选自《中共老一代:素描与自传》(原名The Chinese Communists:Sketches and Autobiographies of the Old Guard)一书,1972年由美国格林伍德出版公司出版,作者尼姆·韦尔斯即中国人民的老朋友海伦·福斯特·斯诺(埃德加·斯诺的前妻)。 该书是《红尘》(斯坦福大学出版社1952年版)一书的增订版。该书内容源自作者在1937年春天赴延安采访中共领导人和各界知名人士的原始记录,亦可说是中共人士首次向外界披露的个人自传。该书记录了28位中共历史人物的个人自传和作者本人对他们的素描,内容十分丰富,都是作者通过采访直接得到的第一手材料,有些内容至今仍鲜为人知,具有重要的史料价值;在作者对每个人物的素描部分,既描述了她本人在延安的观感,又向人们澄清了后来传说中的一些似是而非的事件,有助于人们了解真实的历史。该书的写作手法颇具特色,文笔生动传神,文句简洁朴素,给人一种清新、原汁原味的感觉,至今读来仍使人感到有着巨大的现实魄力。该书译成中文后,由本刊首家向社会披露。本刊将其内容分成若干系列有选择地陆续刊登,以飨读者。
