From the narrator's point of view, Four Eyes lent him the book because it was thinnest one of them all. That means it would be read faster and returned sooner so he would not get into any trouble. The story is a significant meaning for the friends for it tells them of things they would never get a chance to experience while they are still being "reeducated" but from reading that book they were motivated. This affected them and soon Luo was getting together with the seamstress all because he read that book.
