John Christopher (Set of Volumes 1-4)

The sound of the river is mighty. Life is a river. We are like a drop of rain falling from the sky, slowly flowing into the river, then into the river and the sea, and finally flowing to the end of life. This book is also what the author said. It is not a novel, but a journey of life experience, including joy, happiness, pain, love, friendship, family, music, nature, life, loss, possession, light, darkness, likes, hates... I never thought I would read such a book before I was 24 years old. I hope that when I read this book again when I am about 50 years old, my feelings will definitely be different from now.

Emm... There seems to be something wrong with this duration? I must have watched Christopher for at least a hundred hours, otherwise how could I possibly finish Ulysses... Just kidding, I just finished grinding Ulysses 🌚

I finished reading this book on the eve of my 35th birthday.

This is a long masterpiece that took more than 20 years. Romain Rolland began to conceive of it in 1890. In February 1902, "Half Moon Series" published the first volume of the novel "Dawn", but it was not until 1912 that the tenth and final volume "Rebirth" was published. The protagonist of this book, Christophe, was born in a small German town. The constricted air of the small town suffocated him, like a trapped animal in a cage. What made him breathless the most was not the lack of freedom, but the overflowing idealism. These are manifested in art as a kind of sentimentalistic hope. Artists lie and dare not face life.

"Johan Christophe" is a novel by Romain Rolland. This book is also the main work for which Romain Rolland won the Nobel Prize for Literature. When Romain Rolland wrote about the name John-Christophe, he wrote: "The day you meet the face of John-Christophe is the day you will die." This sentence is a very classic sentence in Fu Lei's translation. The sincerity and elegance of Fu Lei's translation can also be felt from this sentence, which is also one of the characteristics of Fu Lei's translation.

This is a biography about leadership and success. Through rhetorical devices such as metaphor and parallelism, the author demonstrates John Christopher's life story and leadership qualities. This book details John Christopher's upbringing, leadership style and success. Through delicate description and in-depth research, the author demonstrates John Christopher's outstanding talents and influence as a leader. During the reading process, readers can learn about John Christopher's secrets of success and leadership wisdom, and at the same time, they can draw inspiration from it to improve their own leadership and success abilities.

This book is not just a novel, it is equivalent to Beethoven's "Symphony of Destiny". The author fluently narrates the protagonist's life history of struggle, his kindness and simplicity in his youth, his unremitting struggle for the truth in his youth, and his clear and mature understanding of the world and the cause he has devoted his life to in his old age. The author makes the image of Christophe lifelike, the words are gorgeous and beautiful but not divorced from reality, and the plot is tortuous but gives readers time to recall.

I really enjoyed listening to this book. This is the second time I have heard that Christophe's approach to life is never at the mercy of fate. He is perseverant, loves art, and advocates the lofty realm of freedom. His logic is rigorous and his artistic talent is high.

"The day you see Christophe's face, It is the day when you will die and not die an evil death. " If you don't know how a person should go through life, maybe you can take a look at Christopher. He experienced too much suffering in his life, but these sufferings did not hit him, but became his nourishment. There was always an upward force pulling him throughout his life, so that he could survive even through inhuman torture. This is a good book worth reading.

A classic read! John Christopher's strong and resolute heart overcomes the dark side of his soul and moves from childishness to maturity. It tells how a sincere musician resists the hypocritical and frivolous society, thereby sublimating and perfecting himself in the struggle against the reactionary forces of society. It is therefore also a history of the soul and growth. At the same time, this novel is also a musical epic. A very good literary novel, really good.

I finished reading this book in the last two days of 2022.

A classic novel worth reading.

Romain Rolland practiced his heroism in this book - the only heroism

Leave the past to memories, live with your heart now, why should you expect the future? No matter what kind of character I have, it has meaning. The most important thing is to be yourself. The long river of society will smooth out my edges and corners. Thirty years ago, the river east and west were just east and west.

You don't have to be afraid of sinking or falling, as long as you can constantly extricate yourself and renew yourself

The words translated by Fu Lei are so beautiful [Like][Like][Like]

Most people in the world are cowardly and lack courage, but Christopher is so strong and brave. I also want to be a little braver, just a little bit.

After reading, check in and commemorate the touch that the text brought to you, just like another life of your own.

Although those who sow seeds in the long river of time do not have permanent monuments, they can only be said to have existed if they have faith, enthusiasm, heart and love.

The second time I read it, I felt that this book was as vast and deep as the sea.

Wow, this book is really great! I particularly like the protagonist John. He never gives up in the face of difficulties, which I admire very much. And I think the author's writing style is very unique, the words are beautiful, and it is very comfortable to read. However, I kind of hate John's neighbor, he always laughs at John and it's really irritating. Overall, this is a book worth reading and highly recommended!

As Christopher was born and died, I may have been resurrected once.

Well, this is a beautiful book, especially its description of the character's heart, which is very easy to empathize with.

It's a very good book. I saw some things that happened when I was a teenager that resonated with me. I'm currently reading the second book. I'll give it four stars first.

So beautiful, just like the introduction at the front of the book! Rich and full, the slowly flowing words nourish life like a river! This is a great book!
