About this book
老殘遊記為著名的晚清四大諷刺小說之一，因當時清朝腐敗，國勢衰頹，內憂外患紛擾不斷，國弱民窮，而官僚卻貪腐不堪，劉鶚以生花妙筆，藉著遊記中的主人翁老殘旅遊之見聞來刺諷官僚的剛愎與虐民，雖有暗諷時局之意，但遊記中也時時透露出老殘（影射劉鶚本人）對社會的關懷與瞭解。本書對於晚清的政治與社會民情有相當的描述，且非常寫實。這些都反映在老殘或夢或醒的遊歷過程中，事實上，他也藉由老殘的夢境來映射他對當時官場與社會現實的看法。-- 此書不僅為政治類或社會批判性小說，亦是相當成功的遊記類小說，因作者的寫景、寫人與寫情的能力極高，讓人不知不覺地跟著老殘一起遊歷黃河賞美景，一起聽黑妞白妞「大珠小珠落玉盤」般神妙的說書絕技，一起在夢境中歷險，並一起來斷時局，甚至在必要時斷案解惑。 (Summarized by 林慧菁 Huei-Chin Lin)
