Ken Follett really knows how to tell stories, and the plot is ups and downs and exciting. Human nature is constantly reversed, fully revealed, with various viewpoints, anti-war should be the only main line Dark Night and Dawn ~ Under the rule of theocracy and monarchy, civilians can only helplessly wander between the status of slaves and paupers. Compared to Temple Spring and Autumn, it is a bit weaker, but the story is still quite compact. The Fall of Giants trilogy is about the virtues, Soviet Union, England, and Wales, five families of four generations, different social classes, each with their own dreams, desires, and confusions. They collide, blend, and interact with each other under various backgrounds, including World War I, World War II, the Cold War, the Berlin Wall, civil rights, and racial conflicts. To integrate into the upper class, one must understand politics, and to stand out among the common people, one must have a deep understanding of human nature. However, war can destroy everything. Political will cannot go against human nature, but human nature can create madness. The same hero can be created and destroyed in different eras. Human nature will be unscrupulous and annihilated under the constraints of no rules. The rise of feminism has made the images of Maud, Ethel, and Daisy distinctive, especially Cara, who is a shining combination of femininity, motherhood, and humanity. There are also young Grigory, Billy, George, and Lloyd, middle-aged Warner, and old Fitz... Each person's heart is a map of the world, a medieval map, with the world in the shape of a disk and Jerusalem at the center. Rome is bigger than the whole of Africa, and of course it is nowhere to be found in the United States. The heart is this kind of map. People always put themselves at the center of the map, and everything else cannot compare with it. You draw the friends of your youth very big, and when new friends need to be added, you cannot make the old friends smaller. People who cause you harm always seem too big, and often the same goes for those you love.
I think this book is so wonderful! Just like my friends who have walked out of the mountains, the protagonists in the book are also working hard to pursue their dreams and happiness. I especially like Ragna in "Dark Night and Dawn". She married a foreign country but was deceived, but still firmly pursued justice. This reminds me of a cousin of mine who also bravely left her hometown and never flinched in the face of difficulties. This book made me feel the difficulty of life and the power of persistence, and it also made me cherish my current life more. I highly recommend everyone to read this book!
We should reflect on why the Second World War broke out in less than 20 years when human civilization has developed to a stage where we can cherish peace and cherish life.
Speak eloquently and clearly. The characterization is vivid and lifelike. The exotic scenery is like being there in person. The description of the event is detailed and realistic!
A very wonderful novel, focusing on the major historical events of the entire 20th century interspersed with countless personal joys and sorrows.
