A Philosophy Book Cloaked in Fantasy, Rigorous and True
Rigorous and true



























































I stayed up late and finished watching "Gadfly". Mixed feelings. There is so much covered in this novel that you won't get bored. I often joke that this is a love novel disguised as revolution, but it is actually a revolutionary novel disguised as love. Because of the times. Because of opposition. Because of factions. Unique to that era, intertwined, and more complex than emotions—— The gadfly awakens the priest with death. Revolutionaries will inherit the era of gadfly awakening. A masterpiece is a masterpiece, and it cannot escape the shell of a novel. It contains all the plots that contemporary people love to hear and see. The first half can be said to be a cool novel similar to "The Count of Monte Cristo". The whole thing is a common sadistic story about falling in love and wanting to kill someone. Finally, there is an inspirational and passionate article. There are also many scenes that are popular in Internet articles, with distinct characters and flesh-and-blood characters. The gadfly suffered for half his life, lived wantonly and died heroically. Priest is just the beginning. The world will surely set off new waves.
The last two chapters were written with such tension that the two people's turbulent and complicated emotions poured out. The relationship between the gadfly and the priest is difficult to describe with any emotion in the world. The father is not like the father, and the son is not like the son. There is no charm like a lover, but there is more indescribable distortion and crazy love than family affection. It is so wonderful.
This book is kindly recommended by Paul Korchagin
This book is a very beautiful novel. The protagonist Niu Meng, Arthur, probably did not expect that he was the child of Archbishop Montanelli who he respected, worshiped and loved the most! Even though Niu Meng suffered a lot because of it, he was only dissatisfied with the nature of the church. Even during the suffering, he never blamed the bishop, and his reaction to the various unfortunate encounters that happened later. It really raises the aura of humanity to a very high level. Especially the meeting and conversation between the Bishop and Arthur in the cell at the end... Undoubtedly reached the climax of the book... Especially the sentence "Come back, come back! Bishop, I can't stand it anymore!" At that moment, I felt that Arthur was indeed a flesh-and-blood person. In short, whether it was language, psychological description, or scenery coordination... All gave people a shock and spiritual enjoyment... Hey, I am used to the happy endings of most novels, and this book did not expect tragedy to have such a shocking charm...
Influenced by "The Gadfly", this is also the Stoic spirit that Paul Korchagin pursued throughout his life.
The plot direction has nothing to do with what I imagined. I still have an unbelievable attitude towards the description of the protagonist's experience. However, I really like the description of the conflict between father and son's previous feelings and beliefs. It is shocking.
I must also read the novels that Paul Korchagin has read. The protagonist is very similar to Boa, brave and insisting on justice. No matter how painful and tiring the ordeal is, he will not be afraid. It makes people's blood boil. I really hope everyone will read it.
"Whether I live or whether I die, I am a gadfly flying around happily." Looking back on the life of Gadfly, in my eyes, he is like a turbulent river, rushing to the sea without hesitation, escaping from reality and being indifferent to the world are the manifestations of a coward; only those who face life head-on and have no hesitation are the real heroes. This is the spiritual wealth left to future generations by the novel "Gadfly". To be honest, as a young man in the new century, we are facing an era of coexistence of opportunities and challenges. Only those with strong will and independent spirit can be at the forefront of the times. If we don't work hard, we will always live at the bottom.
Surprise, heartache, shock! Gadfly's experience always makes me sober. "No miracle happened." The only rare opportunity to escape from prison was that he eventually relapsed and failed to escape. He did not wait for a second escape from prison, nor did he "come back from the dead." Suffering a lot, an experience that is unbearable for ordinary people, gave him incomparable strength and the most precious pure and kind heart. He never gave up the fight until the very end. His life is so clear and bright...
Beautiful and very educational. Gadfly's love for his godfather doomed his tragic life. The godfather sacrificed the most important thing for the power in his hands, and ultimately ended up regretting the rest of his life. But can you please stop breaking the chapter and make me have to search for it?
The writing is so good that I dare not comment for fear of being inappropriate and fooling myself and others.
I know that suffering is heavy and always appears to destroy people. However, I have withstood similar and fatal sufferings and fought back several times. Don't worry, my dear, it won't be long before I will continue to gallop in the grassland like a wolf licking my wounds.
A gadfly, a happy gadfly, for the sake of faith and love, can bear the pain that life cannot bear, can endure the humiliation that cannot be accepted by dignity, and can understand the fate that all living beings cry out for. The vivid and vivid Bishop finally understood that this is just a world of cannibalism. Which is more important, the life of one person or the lives of millions of people? I can't explain it, I can't even think about it. In the end, I should follow my fate? Where did this fate begin, where did it come from, and where did it take away the so-called fate in the name of fate? Oh, how ironic it is that the theocratic beliefs of the Middle Ages and even older eras will not become great because of the span of time, but will become decayed and sad. The happiness and glory of the gadfly will not be lost even if it is submerged in the soil, just like his great love, love for dear Joan, the ideal, intelligent and emotional Joan, a wise woman, the embodiment of beauty, an independent individual! I also love and respect dear and happy Arthur - the Gadfly! Maybe he came to this world not to protect his body, but to protect his soul!
This book was the first novel I read when I was in elementary school. It happened in the 1990s. Now I have read it again. The only memories left in my childhood are fragments of their reunion. Now that I have read it, I feel infinitely regretful and heartbroken. The poor lover, the miserable archbishop, and the strong and wise gadfly.
A happy bully is indeed happy. Working hard for your own beliefs and dreams is what many people at the bottom dream of. Haizi is the same, feeding horses, chopping firewood, traveling around the world, facing the sea with spring flowers blooming. Nowadays, we have abandoned our beliefs for money. Who still remembers the dreams of childhood? Maybe this is life, we are ordinary people, we are handcuffed by the shackles of this world, just like the belts and chains on Arthur's body. When can I break free, when can I have my own poetry and distance.
This version has too many cuts, which makes the plot not smooth in some places. I recommend reading another version of "Gadfly (Gadfly Classic)". I only read half of it before switching to the other version.
Death needs to be memorialized, especially the great death dedicated to mankind; however, death should leave a piece of silence and beauty, and should not become a weapon of truth for those who are willing.
It's a very good book. It's better to read a book or a classic.
I cried until I finished watching it
This book is really worth reading! Each character is distinct and not fixed to a certain setting. Also, the character design of Gadfly is really good. When Arthur returns after thirteen years, he is still the same Arthur with an innocent heart. Another point is foreshadowing. The author has interspersed a lot of foreshadowings, which are closely linked
The author first focuses on Arthur's character relationships and encounters. In the middle of the issue, he mentions a bit about the bishop and the lover's piecemeal writing. Then he does not mention that Arthur enters the story under another name and has new contact with the previous characters. Finally, the encounter with the bishop and lover, the successive recognition of the bishop, the sacrifice, and finally the recognition and lyricism of the lover through faith. Each link is designed so wonderfully and excitingly that it strongly arouses the interest of the readers to continue to pursue. The story is particularly touching.
The Gadfly is arrogant, rude and terrifying on the surface, but kind, strong, brave and sincere on the inside. He is tortured by life and looks miserable. His body is in terrible pain, but his soul is dazzling. There is such a person in reality, but I didn't notice his eyes and wisdom. I didn't even see the Gadfly's ridicule to the hostess of the banquet. It was shocking and painful.
No matter i live or death i will always be happy gadfly
I will definitely buy the whole book when I have money! [Almost crying][crying]
No matter I live, or death, I will always be, Happy gadfly.
"I mean, I've run out of courage and found myself a coward."
First of all, I would like to say that when reading a book on Tomato, you must first check whether it is the abridged version. While reading the book, I read the paragraph reviews and saw no less than ten times that "the first few chapters have been deleted" and "this paragraph has been deleted", which made me particularly unhappy. Secondly, I am also thinking about my personal growth. When I was in the third or fourth grade of elementary school, there was a girl in my class reading this book. I laughed at her at the time and said, "Why are you reading 'Niu Meng'?" Now think about it, how extensive her knowledge reserve is. When I read this book now, I dare not read some passages carefully, because the words written deeply penetrate into the soul and arouse mental tremors. With my current experience and mentality, I am unable to face it. Then, I was actually very irritable at first because of the deletion (not practicing enough), but when I saw the confrontation between Arthur and the priest before the execution, I was shocked. The writing is so touching. The writing is sharp. It's unbearable, it's awesome. Finally, this book is truly a masterpiece. Also, I would like to mention that the protagonist is often described in the article as "looking at Qiongma with squinted eyes". This expression hit me very hard. Hahaha, I feel very handsome.
World famous books. Beautifully written. The characters' personalities are portrayed perfectly. Niu Meng is so miserable. I was shocked. We must learn from his spirit. The spirit of knowing shame and then being brave.
This is a revolutionary epic. Although the subsequent uprising is unknown, Arthur used his own blood to awaken the conscience of Mondini and a group of Christian believers, awakening them to prepare for war at any time.
I like this book very much. I have so many things to say but I don't know where to start. I feel sad about the passing of Gadfly and feel that Gadfly's death has restored the final conscience of Christians. I really like the part about Saiyan's response to the priest in prison. It is so well written. Thirteen years. The pain finally came out when the person he once loved the most was also the one who caused him to suffer the humiliation for thirteen years. It was a pity that his godfather was also his father and did not choose him. The godfather killed him again. There was also a lot of admiration for the revolutionaries. One gadfly fell and hundreds of gadflies fell. The description of the environment in this book is also good, it is a heart-warming text... I was a little sleepy and stayed up until three o'clock to finish reading. It was so good that I read it for almost five hours. I am very patient (●°u°●) "
