About This Novel

[Shakespeare's classic, relive the charm of drama] "Gold can turn black into white and ugly into beauty." Timon, an Athenian nobleman, was a philanthropist who would not refuse friends who came to seek help and spent money like water. Soon, he ran out of money and was heavily in debt. But when he sought help from his former friends, he was coldly rejected by everyone. The grief-stricken and angry Timon held a last banquet, poured hot water on the hypocritical guests, and then angrily left the city and lived in seclusion in the wilderness. Who would have thought that he accidentally dug up a lot of gold in the cave - what would this man who had completely despaired of humanity do with the money?
