摘要
This paper discusses the only full-length novel by Hu Shih, The Suchness Island, and its implication of literary ethics. This paper argues that Hu reveals the evils of various superstitions and idolatry practiced in the name of tradition, while addressing the necessity of overcoming superstition to enlighten the people. In this respect, The Suchness Island should be viewed as having literary ethical implications that triggered an awakening in society to reform many of their customs.
