Literature, as one of the forms of culture, has special importance because it is one of the most ancient and, at the same time, the most wonderful forms of human culture. It helps make people’s life more colorful and reflects almost all the processes of the objective reality.

Japan, for instance, remains divided over the number of Chinese killed in Nanking during those six weeks. While Chang faced a barrage of attacks from other historians, as well as from the publisher contracted to translate her book into Japanese, the debate over what happened in Nanking from December 1937 to January 1938 had been raging before the publication of her book. Unlike many historians, Chang thrust stories and photographs of rape, disfigurement, killing contests, and live burials in front of her readers, forcing them to choose either to shudder and remember or look away in complicity. The book had awoken the mainstream Western consciousness to the truth of the Japanese military’s horrific massacre of Chinese soldiers and civilians prior to World War II. Sandwiched between them was the blood-red spine of Iris Chang’s The Rape of Nanking.
