On the pretext that former member Ivanov might inform the authorities, he instigated his associates to assassinate him, and Nechayev himself fled abroad. Inspired by this horrific case, Dostoevsky spent two years writing the novel "The Demons." The novel creates a group of characters with complex personalities: Stavrogin, a transhumanist who denies everything, Kirillov, a madman who attempts to commit suicide and become a god, Peter, a conspirator who uses revolution as a means to satisfy his selfish desires, and those bewitched, devout and fanatical idealists. Behind their ridiculous or heinous behavior, there is a deep tragedy hidden. The nihilism caused by extreme rationality and individualism is a by-product of modern industrial civilization. When people break away from the land and people, abandon all morals and traditions, have no faith, no love, no fear, and no refuge, while winning freedom, they also suffer hellish pain. "Demons" is not only a portrayal of the social reality of Russia in the mid-to-late 19th century, but also a prediction of the spiritual dilemma that contemporary people still cannot escape.

Through the characterization of the characters and the truthful depiction of the world around them, Fitzgerald more powerfully demonstrated his profound understanding of the spiritual essence of the "American Dream" and his strong awareness of the "American Tragedy". In this unfinished work, Fitzgerald seems to have combined two novels into one work: it is both a "psychological novel" that describes personal struggles and spiritual experiences, and a "social novel" that reflects the real scenes of Hollywood and exposes the dark inside story of the film industry. Fitzgerald used his extremely high literary talent and extraordinary ability to control materials to organically integrate these two creative ideas, giving this novel a strong shocking and tragic effect.

A small heater on the carved wooden table brought a little warmth in the cold winter, but it could not warm Ling Xiaoxiao's already numb heart. The green smoke coming out of the furnace was accompanied by the slightest fragrance, but it also made Ling Xiaoxiao lean on the couch lazily and comfortably, with an indifferent expression. The man in front of her looked a little uneasy, looking at Ling Xiaoxiao in front of her with some confusion. The atmosphere was a bit weird and awkward. Luo Haitian coughed lightly and raised his voice: "Xiaoxiao, I have something to tell you." He motioned the girls waiting on both sides to step back, but Ling Xiaoxiao...

She came from time-to-time and was a person with no money, no power, and no status. The unlucky one was chased by people as soon as he arrived and even met a scoundrel! When you wake up after a nap, you find that you have become someone else's side room? And the most disgusting thing is that she found out that she was forced to get into the wrong sedan chair, and she also found out that her 'husband-in-law' was actually the scoundrel. She wanted to hide her edge and wait for an opportunity to escape, but he was pushed to the forefront of the storm. ☆--------------☆------------------ Is the princess deliberately making things difficult? Is the concubine plotting to frame her? Snort! She, Leng Zui'er, had never been a silent, cowardly little white rabbit who allowed others to bully her. The main concubine was in trouble and kicked her, and the side concubine framed her and framed her back. Since they wanted to fight, let's fight like crazy. We want this Yongning Palace to never be peaceful. . . . ☆--------------☆------------------ [Fragment] 1: "Leng Zui'er, even if the prince favors you again, you won't be able to get on the stage. The princess of Yongning Palace will always be me, Luo Xuexin!" Luo Xuexin clenched her hands and said with a gloomy look at Zui'er in front of her. "The princess is right, I really can't stand on the stage, but everyone in the world knows that a wife is not as good as a concubine. Princess, you don't need to remind you of this, right?" Zui'er said lightly and turned around to leave. ☆--------------☆------------------ Fragment two: "My lord, my wife has cut off the princess's hair!" The housekeeper reported to Nie Longxiao in front of him with a worried look. "Did Zui'er get hurt?" Nie Longxiao continued to read the book in front of him without raising his head, with a smile on his lips. "No, no, Princess..." "Go and tell the princess to live in the Buddhist hall and pray for me and Zui'er!" Before the butler could finish speaking, Nie Longxiao said calmly. "..." The housekeeper had no choice but to turn around and leave. "Your Majesty, Madam kicked Concubine Ning into the lotus pond and fed her canary to the cat!" Not long after, the housekeeper came back again and said, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead. "Go and ask the doctor!" Nie Longxiao's smile did not diminish. He changed his posture and saw the housekeeper about to go out. He added: "Take him to see if Zui'er has hurt his foot! By the way, check on the cat. Don't eat too much, otherwise Zui'er will feel bad!" ♡----------♡----------♡----------♡------ Men are strong and women are not weak. They love each other one on one.
