"False Dawn" describes New York in the 1840s. When Lewis Lacy, a wealthy man, traveled to Europe, his father commissioned him to purchase famous Italian paintings and establish the "Lacey Gallery". As a result, Lewis, who was mentored by the young art critic Ruskin and others in Europe, had a huge difference in artistic taste with the conservative old New Yorkers led by the old Lacy, which triggered a series of extremely ironic events. Through the perspective of a young man, "Sparks" shows some of the behaviors of a simple-hearted and bold-tempered banker, Delaine, who is incompatible with social conventions, making the story full of suspense, and the root of this behavior is not revealed until the end. Edith Wharton's respect for Whitman, the famous American poet of the 19th century, is fully reflected in this novel.

Recommended by Jin Shijie, JJ Lin, and "Downton Abbey" Dan Stevens, "Tuesday" is a masterpiece by author Mitch Albom. It is a heartwarming fable that heals the rush of the times and breaks away from calculation and wasted time. "When we try to turn back the clock, what we are chasing is love." He is revered as the "Father of Time" because he invented the first clock; he was severely punished by God like Prometheus because he dared to measure time, which is the best gift God gave to mankind. He was imprisoned by God in a bottomless cave, listening to the same words year after year, which are the same words that will never be restored. They are the earnest pleas from the people on the earth. They are diligent and demanding for time. They want to turn back the clock and let time stop for them. Just when the "Father of Time" was about to suffer a mental breakdown from being tortured by these pleas, he was forgiven by God and accepted a mission: to carry a magic hourglass to the earth to enlighten all living beings and reveal the true meaning of "time". At the same time, God also assigned two partners to him, one is a girl who wants to commit suicide because of a broken love, and the other is a rich man who hopes to rely on modern technology to live forever. The "Father of Time" must save them both before he can finally complete his own redemption.
