"Looking Back on Forty Years" (回首四十年) is a semi-autobiographical essay collection by Singaporean Chinese writer Lian Shisheng (连士升), published in the early 1950s. The book chronicles his important life stages and inner journey from childhood to middle age.
Written with vivid and delicate prose, it captures his experiences studying, living, and enduring wars in mainland China, as well as his migration and eventual settlement in Southeast Asia.
Through these stories, Lian reflects deeply on his homeland, education, culture, and the sweeping social changes of the time. The work serves not only as a personal memoir but also as a valuable historical document capturing the transformations of Chinese society in the first half of the 20th century.
