Foreign Masterpieces, Preferably Classical and Romantic Ones!
I want to read a book similar to "A Tale of Two Cities (Classic World Masterpiece)".

This book touched me very much. The characters in the book are all very real, and Francesca's inner struggle made me relate to her. Her choice between love and responsibility is really difficult. I have also faced a similar dilemma, so I can particularly understand her contradictions. Robert's appearance was like a light, illuminating her ordinary life. Although their love was short-lived, it was unforgettable. This reminds me of the sentence: "If life is only like the first meeting." Maybe, some people are only suitable for meeting, not staying together. But those beautiful memories will remain in my heart forever.
"Old dreams are good dreams that didn't come true, but I'm glad I had them." A person is lucky to meet someone he truly loves in this life, whether they stay together or not. Without these four days of true love, Francesca would have continued to suppress herself. She had her demands as a girl, her small pursuit of life and the spiritual world. She was always silent, or habitually ignored her desires. She wanted a life. Some romantic moments, some less traditional, plain, as silent as death moments, perhaps just the ordinary wild chrysanthemums on the roadside that were the only ones I received in more than forty years. I gently lowered the gauze curtain, and I was willing to sit down and drink a glass of brandy with her, walk on the pasture, talk naturally about the difference between the pasture and the pasture, and understand her secret pain and expectations. Many people do not have the ability to bear beyond metaphor, and even the metaphor has to be obscure and obscure, but some people do not need to say it, love will flow naturally. The Lost Dream on the Covered Bridge is really a good title. The characters in the story disappeared with the wind of that year. Many people still remember the lost dream on the covered bridge. Live hard and love seriously, as long as it doesn't go against your true heart.
I forgot that I read this book a few years ago. At that time, I couldn't fully understand their sincere feelings. I even think it has some moral flaws. I know today that I have been divorced for more than a year. I met a married person and I fell madly in love with him. Only then did I understand true love. Suddenly I thought of this book and read it again with love. I found that we are completely unable to reach the realm of the people in the book. Our love is too superficial. It may not even be love. I won't disturb his life, he has his responsibilities. Being together occasionally is already a luxury. Or we may lose contact one day, in this rapidly developing world. But the perfect fit between psychology and physiology is something I will never forget.
For middle-aged people, family responsibilities come first. This book describes the love between two people beautifully and touchingly, but the most touching thing is their rationality, restraint, and sacrificing their feelings for the sake of responsibility. People, first of all, are social and have to shoulder social responsibilities, raise children, and honor their parents. If you completely abandon your own responsibilities and completely let yourself go to pursue the so-called freedom and love, you will definitely be criticized by people, and you will probably be burdened with a heavy psychological burden, making it difficult to live truly free. Assuming that they are together, will they really be happy forever? Will you continue to love me? It is not necessarily true that the heroine will definitely miss her child and be full of concern and guilt for her child. She may not be able to adapt to the life of wandering with him, and her love will probably fade away with the daily life of daily necessities. If you can't love, you will always be in your dreams. What you miss seems to be the best. The same days always seem too dull. The love you encounter by chance always stirs people's hearts. But fortunately, she is so rational and calm, and she is not dazzled by this love. Just like what is described in "The Book of Songs. Jianjia", the love and dreams we pursue will always have a hazy beauty, and what makes us unforgettable always seems to be the process of pursuit.
I didn't understand it before, I just felt that the two of them had too many regrets. Now I understand that it may be these regrets that make this love sublime.
Four days of extreme intense yet restrained, extremely romantic and extremely conservative interactions between the leopard who came to this world on the tail of a comet and the troubadour who left Ma County in Naples. What is love? Perhaps, love is an arrow shot from afar and a spear rooted in the earth. An arrow is always flying, but it ceases to be an arrow when it stops; a spear is forever on guard, and it is no longer a spear after it is thrown. Francesca understands, and so does Robert. So let the arrow always be an arrow, and let the spear always be a spear. The wind blew through the tail feathers of the arrows and the long tassels of the spears. The sometimes violent and sometimes resentful rustling sounds were their calls to each other across time and space.
The brushstrokes are delicate and the sense of substitution is strong. It's very sad to read it. I feel like life is like a journey. I hope our souls will always be free and be able to retain our love and dreams. At the same time, love is hard to come by, and having such an unforgettable experience is enough.
I accidentally discovered this book when I opened this software, and decided to read it. I remembered that it was made into a video, but I didn't finish it completely. Unexpectedly, I actually spent one day reading this book. It seems that there is a powerful force sucking the blood from my heart, constantly rushing into my eyes, sometimes the foam rises, sometimes scatters in all directions. Four days can be wasted, but it can also be a lifetime. A true love is the perseverance of the heart. The deepest part of the girl's heart that has been hidden for many years seems to slowly emerge. Every word is filled with my blood, yes, love is entangled. Love really does not need material as a carrier. After traveling through space and time, we still love each other. Compared with the trivial things, the kind of longing and rising day and night, how can we not make people fascinated. This is the magic of true love. Some things are for remembering, and some things are for living. I have experienced it before, and I have signed up to love all of myself. [Love]
What is love in this world? Direct teachings promise life and death. There is a kind of love called Bridge of Lost Dreams, and they fell in love with each other at that moment. Perhaps the wheel of fate began to spin from the moment Kincaid stepped off Harry and asked for directions. A traveler, a prodigal, a poet, an unruly soul, a housewife, Francesca's true self that has been suppressed for decades has rekindled her dry heart. Rossman Bridge witnessed this adventure. They exchanged four days of knowing each other and loving each other for more than 20 years of time apart from each other. Time has never erased their love and longing for each other! There will be no resentment until the end of your life. The silver necklace, small disc, camera, and note are the concrete expressions of Kincaid's love for Francesca. The Bridge of Lost Dreams - a story of time, a longing for twenty years, four days of love in exchange for missing for the rest of your life. When you face responsibility and love, look at the heroine's choice. An earth-shattering and touching love story was staged under the covered bridge. The past is like a dream, and the past is like a dream! You will never meet that lovely person again. There is only this love in your life, which will make you sigh at the preciousness of love!
It may be hard to understand at first, but that's how classics are, they have charm that can keep you hooked. It was the first time I saw someone writing about women's desires, the first time I saw women's needs, restrained yet crazy desires. The love between them is short but strong, and eventually grows stronger and cannot be ignored. I finally understand the meaning of the Covered Bridge Lost Dream. There may be only one clear love in a person's life. If you miss it, it will never come back. Love is indeed impulsive and unreasonable. Only educated people can control themselves. This book is worth recalling and allowed me to touch the corner of love again. Most of the previous loves were too shallow and soulless, so sometimes I couldn't understand their love. Worth seeing! !
At first I thought Robert and Francesca's relationship was very frivolous, but could they fall in love with each other in just two days? Thinking evilly, would they still love each other so much if they endured the test of life together? Then when Robert endured loneliness for Francesca, and Francesca withheld her love for the sake of responsibility, perhaps modern society has shaped me to be too rational and suspicious, so that when I see this kind of unswerving, loyal, and thrilling love, I will continue to question it.
Like is unbridled, love is restrained, and the ultimate love is the ultimate restraint.
I watched the movie many times many years ago and just read the novel today. This forbearing love is deeply rooted in my heart. It's not that I don't think about it, but I miss it every time I think about it!
Perhaps the advanced love will not be understood by the current world, but when we open the dusty letters, we will still be moved by love. Love makes Francesca beautiful and confident; it makes Kincaid wait silently in the distance. Cuteness is also a responsibility, and it is this sense of responsibility that makes Francesca's image more full and powerful, allowing the two of them to remember just four days for the rest of their lives. There are many stream-of-consciousness descriptions in this book, such as "The Last Cowboy", "The Road", "The Cheetah Arriving on the Tail of a Comet", including descriptions of the male and female protagonists having sex, etc. These words turn their time together into a soap bubble, a dream that is short-lived. Another interesting point in this book is the transformation of the timeline. It changes back and forth with the letters, or the perspective is pulled back and forth, which is quite interesting.
When I saw Francesca reading the letter Robert Kincaid left for her before his death, there was a sentence in the letter: My heart is covered with dust. I guess it's not just me who was heartbroken and teary-eyed after reading this, there are many more people too! The male protagonist is troubled by missing her every day, yearning for the happy time they spent four days together, and he has to respect the female protagonist's responsibility to the family. Although the female protagonist has not left the family, she also yearns for the happiness of getting along! Their most beautiful interpretation of love is: not necessarily together, but always in their hearts!
Love and responsibility, she finally chose responsibility. What he loves is her who is rational, transparent and individual. If she really leaves with him, maybe they won't be so happy. Just because she didn't leave, she became even more attractive. He loved her for the rest of his life and she followed him. The tears seemed worthless and kept flowing. It was obviously not a happy reunion, but it was obviously so sweet. The details are touching, the emotions are hot, and the soul resonates. She was so beautiful at that moment, he loved her so much, and they will love each other forever.
They are each other's container for themselves and the vehicle for perceiving this chaotic world. Being bound by family responsibilities is the same as being bound by rigid rules. They can't escape the vicious circle, but they can reconcile with it in love. Too perfect will be shattered by time, and only regrets can last forever in the world.
So well written. I couldn't help but cry when I saw the male protagonist's will. Which is more important, responsibility or self-importance? . . I can't understand and distinguish. . . But if given the choice, I would make the same choice as the male protagonist. Perfect your lover. But it's too cruel.
There are many kinds of love, this should be the most original
When I saw the touching scene, I wasn't feeling the usual sadness, but a more intense emotion that made me want to cry loudly. The separation created a perfect relationship, like a fleeting firework, leaving long-lasting dust and smoke in the air.
I am envious and moved by such feelings. 2024.12.26
When I was in high school, I saw a classmate secretly reading this book. I snatched it from her and she was very unhappy. She said it was not good for children and wouldn't let me read it. Reading this book thirty years later can only be said to be a pity!
Love is based on responsibility, just as freedom is based on rules. Once upon a time, it was difficult to find water in the sea, but it is a great blessing to meet him in this life.
What a great name, Covered Bridge is a wet dream.
After reading this book, I really felt a huge... (I don't know what words to use to describe this feeling) but this book is really recommended to people who like her.
Maybe everyone has a person, a relationship, a moment that is unforgettable.
They each made their own choices, she stayed in the quiet countryside, while he stayed on the road, wandering. Their love for each other supports each of them to go on in their lonely lives until they turn into dust in the universe.
It's great. I've seen this movie. This literary work has the power to move people's hearts.
The Magic of Love, Rothmans Bridge.
After closing this book, I am still deeply touched by the love between Francesca and Robert - it is an almost fateful fit, as if two particles in the universe meet precisely in the chaos, without any reason, but it is the most perfect arrangement. Perhaps, this is how love is: without results, it achieves eternity. Responsibility, repression and responsibility are like invisible gravitational fields, making their emotions become more intense despite restraint. Love may be like a delicate equation. Even if there are slight deviations in the tiny variables - time, mood, encounters - the outcome will be completely different. The encounter, which lasted just four days, became eternal because it could not be completed, shining brightly in the long river of memory. The regret is that the male protagonist Robert has been given too much ink, and his prodigal temperament, literary sentiments and personal image are almost the author's self-projection; in comparison, Francesca's ink is a bit thin, and her past, ideals, pursuits and personality could have been more profound. Finally, the title of the book "The Lost Dream of the Covered Bridge" is so beautifully translated. Love is as short-lived as a dream but profound and eternal.
