Hemingway has many works. In addition to "The Old Man and the Sea", our selection also includes another "tough guy style" work "The Invincible Man" and his "stream of consciousness style" masterpiece "The Snows of Kilimanjaro".

The dream book of a literary young man: There were six pennies all over the floor, but he looked up and saw the moon. "The Little Prince" and "The Kite Runner" were translated by Li Jihong and recommended by Bai Yansong, Yu Hua, Haruki Murakami, Yang Lan, Cai Chongda, Liu Yu and Yu Minhong. The spirit is superior to matter, the individual is superior to society - this anti-secular and anti-traditional stance explained in the book has made generations of readers cry. The protagonist "I" in the book is an underappreciated writer in London. He met a stockbroker by chance. When he reached middle age, he suddenly responded to the call of his heart and rebelled against everything. He first went to Paris, and then to Tahiti in the South Pacific to live with the indigenous people. He devoted himself to painting and became famous after his death. After he became famous, "I" began to trace his past interactions with artists and their subsequent life experiences. The artist's story is based on the life of Gauguin, a French post-Impressionist painter who lived in extreme poverty and was prepared to die in glory.

The reason why Hemingway is called a "literary giant" is that he brings readers into a fictional art world, allowing human beings to fully understand themselves, and to absorb the good wishes and power of improving life and cultivating sentiments in life. A world without literature must be a barbaric and desolate world, and Hemingway won immortal reputation with his unique artistic style and language expression.

"The Collection of Tolstoy: Resurrection" is based on a real event. It mainly describes the hero Nekhludoff seducing his aunt's maid Maslova, making her pregnant and driving her out of the house. Later, she became a prostitute and was tried for murder. The hero appeared in court as a juror and was deeply condemned by his conscience when he saw the woman he had seduced in the past. He ran to avenge her and asked to marry her to atone for his sins. After his appeal failed, he accompanied her into exile in Siberia.

This is a unique adventure novel in the world, and every sentence can hit your bones: 29-year-old Vietnamese youth Ogang embarks on a global trip, which increasingly becomes a permanent escape from life. From Cambodia to Japan, from New York to Montreal and Toronto, he saw bizarre cities, deserts, mountains, and coasts, poverty, famine, and death. He wandered around the world, but kept escaping from the world. "Must go further, further. I run away in order to no longer know anything about the future. Cursed are the coming years, the blind years! I don't want to see the door opened again. I must leave everything that seems like reality but is just a lie."

Unique love reasoning tells a series of tragic events caused by a scumbag. A novel that perfectly combines love and reasoning. The work describes the emotional entanglements of eight pairs of men and women, using psychological reasoning techniques to analyze the psychological hypnosis between lovers and the secrets buried deep in each other's hearts. Every woman in love is a potential mystery writer. All it takes is an awkward look at each other, and a mystery novel with ups and downs of plot can be completed in a blink of an eye. "There is no traceless or perfect trajectory. There will always be traces and clues left behind. In the awkward curve of your mouth, in your eyes that you unconsciously avoid, in your unconsciously clenched hands. In your hug that is harder than usual..." A perfect relationship requires more than just love. --Keigo Higashino
