Rebirth Of The General’s Granddaughter tells us of Zi You, a really pitiful woman who had her life taken from her by the people she once called friends and family. Zi You at first, had no idea that these people were wolves in sheep’s clothing. They coveted everything that belonged to her. Was it love? Zi You had lots of it. Power? She was born with it. Wealth? It was in abundance. No way for Zi You to know that she was a target. A target that would bite the dust at their hands. At the same time, her unborn child would also forfeit its life as well.
Rebirth Of The General’s Granddaughter is very on point with the theme of justice for the wronged. It projects the frustrations of the unfair world the readers all know, and then it effectively enhances the experiences. The satisfaction comes at the moment when the evildoers meet the worst kind of fate possible. Death was too little a price to pay.
However, a miserable life and a pathetic death seem just the right amount of justice needed to deal with them.
The thing I find most comforting about the novel is basically the way the protagonist approached everything from her death to her rebirth. She shows strength and doesn’t beg. Then, her power suddenly unsealed because of all the anger ‘that part is so exciting.
The author of this story, Bīng Yn, does amazing work with the theme of revenge and karma. And, not to mention the crafting of such a wonderful and undoubtedly relatable protagonist.
