"World Classics: The Picture of Dorian Gray" When the aristocratic boy Dorian Gray first arrived in London, a painter friend drew a portrait for him. In the portrait, he was young and handsome. Later, he met the sanctimonious Lord Henry Forton at Basil's house, and was impressed by Henry's philosophy of life. Dorian began to feel pain that youth was fleeting and appearance could not last forever, and declared that if he could stay young forever and let the portrait grow old, he would be willing to give up his soul. From then on, Dorian began to deteriorate day by day, and the portrait became more ugly and ferocious with each of his evil deeds, but Dorian's appearance always maintained his youthful beauty. His character also changed. His first love committed suicide, and he killed the painter friend who discovered his secret... Until in the end, Dorian Gray, who was completely disappointed with himself, finally destroyed the portrait... "Dracula" tells the story about vampires. Jonathan is a young British lawyer who travels there to meet Count Dracula on real estate business. But soon, Jonathan discovered that the handsome count was actually a vampire, and that he was behind bars and became the target of abuse. Later, he saw an opportunity and managed to escape from the castle, but he was severely damaged physically and mentally. At the same time, in the UK, the seaside resort where Jonathan's fiancée Mina and her friend Lucy were vacationing were also frequently troubled by the vampire Dracula. "Ulysses" describes the daily experiences of Opold Bloom, a small citizen of Dublin, during one day and night on June 16, 1904. The novel makes extensive use of detailed descriptions and stream-of-consciousness techniques to construct an intertwined and messy time and space, forming a unique style in language.
