Can you recommend some 'the hopeless love chinese novels'?

One of the well - known hopeless love novels is 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte. The love between Heathcliff and Catherine is full of passion yet doomed. Their social differences and personal vendettas keep them apart in a very tragic way.

One common theme is family opposition. In many Chinese novels, the family often has a big say in marriage. For example, in traditional families, they may value family status, wealth and reputation more than the love between two young people, which leads to the hopelessness of love.

'Call Me by Your Name' by André Aciman is also a great option. It's set in Italy during a summer and follows the relationship between a 17 - year - old boy and a 24 - year - old graduate student. The descriptions of their budding love, the Italian landscape, and the bittersweet nature of their relationship make it a great read for hopeless romantics on Valentine's Day.

One common theme is unrequited love. For example, in many novels, one character loves another deeply, but that love is not returned. This creates a sense of longing and despair.

One well - known 'In Search of Love' - type Chinese novel could be 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'. Although it is mainly about historical events and power struggles, there are also elements of love and loyalty among the characters. For example, the relationship between Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei is not only about brotherhood in the pursuit of a great cause, but also contains deep emotional bonds.

One of the well - known 'eternal love Chinese novels' is 'A Dream of Red Mansions'. It tells a complex love story among many characters in a large family. The love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu is full of twists and turns, representing an eternal and unfulfilled love. Another one could be 'The Legend of White Snake', which shows the deep and eternal love between a snake spirit and a human.

Another one might be 'Love and Redemption'. It tells a story of deep and irresistible love between the two main characters. Their love has to overcome many difficulties, such as misunderstandings, different identities and the interference of the outside world. Through all these trials, their love remains strong and unyielding, which makes it a very engaging love story.

There are numerous Chinese novels exploring the concept of taking risks in love. While I may not be familiar with a particular 'Gamble on Love' novel, many modern Chinese love stories involve elements of gambling in a sense. For example, some stories might have characters who take a chance on a relationship that seems uncertain, like falling in love with someone from a different social class or with a complex past. You can look for such themes in the contemporary Chinese romance genre.

One of the well - known bitter love Chinese novels is 'Eternal Love'. It tells a story full of love and sacrifice between Bai Qian and Ye Hua. Their relationship is fraught with misunderstandings and hardships, which makes the readers feel deeply about their bittersweet love.

One of the well - known painful love Chinese novels is 'Eileen Chang's 'Love in a Fallen City'. It tells a complex and somewhat melancholy love story set against the backdrop of a changing era. The main characters' relationship is full of uncertainties and the pain of unfulfilled desires.
