In 1975, both people's hearts and society seemed to be less sleepy than during the day. Once after nine o'clock in the evening, people are really fast asleep. In the streets and alleys of Shanghai, whether it is an old garden house from the 1940s, an American-style apartment from the 1930s, or a Shikumen lane from the 1920s, the wooden houses painted with brown-red paint from the 1900s gradually emit the animal-like body odor of a depressed and disappointed body sleeping. The deep and lonely sleep floated heavily like night fog on the streets, covering the whole city. Three years ago, Burnstone, the American translator of Mao Zedong's poems, returned from a visit to Shanghai and expressed his opinion that Chinese bodies have no sense of identity at all.

This set of books includes "Sense and Sensibility Part 1 and Part 2", "Mansfield Park 3 Volumes" and "Northanger Abbey 1 and 2 Volumes", a total of 7 volumes. "Sense and Sensibility" is Jane Austen's humorous debut novel. Two sisters, Enoli and Mariana, were born into an English squire family. The elder sister is good at controlling her emotions with reason, but the younger sister's emotions are unrestrained. Therefore, when faced with love, they have different reactions... The novel takes the twists and turns of the complicated marriage of the two heroines as the main line, and raises the normative issues of morality and behavior through the humorous comparison of "reason and emotion". This book and the author's "Pride and Prejudice" can be called companion works. They also use delicate writing and vivid dialogue to tell the story of a girl without a wealthy dowry falling in love and getting married. As reflected in the title of the book, the story focuses on the conflict between "reason" and "emotion". "Manfield Park" takes the love and marriage of young men and women as its theme. Fanny was born into poverty and was adopted by her aunt, Sir Bertram and his wife, when she was 12 years old. Growing up in Mansfield Manor with four cousins, Tom, Edmund, Maria and Julia, they were often treated unequally. Maria and Julia were spoiled and very vain, while Tom was irresponsible and addicted to gambling. Only his kind cousin Edmund treated him equally and kindly. As time goes by, Fanny's gratitude gradually turns into secret love. Although a lot happens in the middle, the novel ends with Fanny and Edmund getting married. There is a lot of irony in the novel, especially when it comes to the two aunts. Fanny's family background is significantly lower than that of the protagonists in other Austen novels, and in this regard this novel may be the most realistic of Austen's works. Edward Said once pointed out that Austen's avoidance of discussing the fact that the economic basis of Mansfield Park was slavery shows that Western culture lacks a self-reflective attitude towards the material benefits brought by slavery and imperialism. "Northanger Abbey" is a love novel. However, unlike other works, in addition to love disputes, the novel also ridicules Gothic novels from beginning to end. Therefore, this can be described as a "dual-theme" novel. The heroine Catherine is the daughter of a pastor, lively and lovely, upright and kind-hearted, and her family is well off. Seventeen years old, life is still like a pool of stagnant water. The Allens took her to Bath for a vacation, where she had an eye-opening experience and got acquainted with Henry Tilney, the son of a wealthy family, the minister and his sister Elinor. Her cuteness won her the sincere love of Henry Tilney and the sincere help of his sister Elinor Tilney. They quickly became good friends. But she also met some hypocritical and vain people, and luckily she saw through their faces. At the same time, she also met another young man, John Thorpe. In order to raise his own worth, Thorpe lied to Henry's father, General Tiny, about the Moran family's property. General Tiny believed the truth and tried his best to encourage his son to pursue Catherine. Later, Thorpe's hope of pursuing Catherine was shattered, and he became angry and overturned all the words he had praised the Moran family before, saying how poor her family was. General Tiny once again believed the lie, drove Catherine out of the house, and ordered his son to forget her. When Catherine returned home, her mother found that her lovely daughter had become so melancholy and completely different from before. The poor mother thought her daughter was nostalgic for the colorful world outside, but she didn't expect her daughter to grow up and find someone she likes. Later, Tierney's unexpected appearance finally made Catherine's parents understand that they must consider whether to agree to their daughter's marriage...

"The Feast Is Gone: The Capote Letters" contains more than 400 of Capote's personal letters, compiled and compiled by Capote biographer Gerald Clark, and disclosed to the world for the first time. It thus presents the most candid and private portrait of Capote, constituting a writer's autobiography of extraordinary significance. From a "statement" written to his biological father when he was 12 years old, to a tearful telegram sent to his lifelong partner two years before his death, the owner of the letter went from a "little wizard" and elf who jumped into the New York literary world, and experienced his high-spirited and heroic years; and then a slightly inner life. In the 1950s, he lived in Europe with his partner and wrote non-stop; in the 1960s, a pioneering non-fiction writing work, "In Cold Blood", pushed him to the top of his career and became the most famous writer in the United States; until the feast dissipated and the light faded, he died of alcohol and drugs in his prime. In the letters, Capote is full of life and self-disclosure. His open-mindedness and uniqueness as a humanistic person make the book full of "absolute fun and crackling rumors and gossip" (Vanity Fair), just like a feast that breaks up and fireworks that get cold, making people sigh with regret.

"Hemingway's Letters (1917-1961)" will present one of the most interesting letter writers in history. As the most well-known writer among all Nobel Prize winners for literature in the past century, Hemingway's public image and legendary life have long been known through his works, but these private letters that are unfamiliar to the world have made a new Hemingway emerge. Carlos Baker, an expert on Hemingway, selected nearly 600 letters written between the age of 18 and his death in more than 40 years from the voluminous letters Hemingway left to the world. In the letters, Hemingway used "private" language outside of his works to express his feelings frankly. He honestly revealed himself to all kinds of people - family, friends, rivals, editors, and almost every famous writer of the time - and recorded every aspect of his life and writing career. It is not an exaggeration to call him the most interesting letter writer of all time. The letters selected for the work not only record the turning points of the writer's life, but also reveal his character and wisdom, as well as his special hobbies for hunting, fishing, eating, etc. The humor and wildness it reveals far exceed his works, and it can be called an unconventional autobiography of a writer. The many international and social events described in it, as well as a number of famous artists and writers, record the international situation and artistic images of an era from the side.

As the most well-known writer among all Nobel Prize winners for literature in the past century, Hemingway's public image and legendary life have long been known through his works, but these private letters that are unfamiliar to the world have made a new Hemingway emerge. Carlos Baker, an expert on Hemingway, selected nearly 600 letters written between the age of 18 and his death in more than 40 years from the voluminous letters Hemingway left to the world. In the letters, Hemingway used "private" language outside of his works to express his feelings frankly. He honestly revealed himself to all kinds of people - family, friends, rivals, editors, and almost every famous writer of the time - and recorded every aspect of his life and writing career. It is not an exaggeration to call him the most interesting letter writer of all time. The letters selected for the work not only record the turning points of the writer's life, but also reveal his character and wisdom, as well as his special hobbies for hunting, fishing, eating, etc. The humor and wildness it reveals far exceed his works, and it can be called an unconventional autobiography of a writer.

These letters not only serve as a guide and reading pleasure for general readers, but also provide those who seriously study literature with the original documents needed to examine the life and achievements of one of the giants of American literature in the twentieth century.
