"The Conductor" is a novel by the famous French writer and Nobel Prize winner Claude Simon. Reading this book is like experiencing an ultimate artistic journey - like strolling through an art gallery, from the Renaissance to Impressionism, the light may be bright or dark, the colors may be thick or light; like wandering in a museum, enjoying rare treasures Among the rare treasures, you can feel the brilliance and eccentricity of time and space. It is like being in a movie theater. The pictures on the big screen are constantly switching between the most primitive forests in America, the most ordinary alleys in a certain city, an endless meeting, and the endless lust of a couple.

"Grand Hotel" is the work of Claude Simon, the Nobel Prize winner and a representative of the new novel. They opposed the traditional creative method represented by Balzac, rejected the storyline, and ignored the characterization. Sartre once called this creative method "anti-novel". In this work, Claude Simon tried to combine text and painting for the first time. There are only a few vague characters in the text, and no clear plot line can be seen. A French college student looks at the Spanish Civil War with two sets of eyes fifteen years apart. He strives to use words as colors, notes and lenses to convey to readers not a story of joys and sorrows, but a hazy and erratic impression.
