"The Temporary Gentleman" is a novel written by Sebastian Barry in 2016. It is also the last book in the "Sebastian Pentology". This is Barry's third novel about the McNulty family. The hero of the story, Jack, is the brother-in-law of Roseanne, the heroine of "The Secret Manuscript", and the brother of Enes, the protagonist of the novel "THE WHEREABOUTS OF ENNIUS MCNULTY" (not published in mainland China). Jack is the only character in the Five Parts who appears in a negative light. He was an alcoholic, a gambler, an absentee father, and a neglected husband. He is dissolute and lazy, lacks responsibility for marriage and family, and is confused and indifferent in the face of war and the army. Almost everything he does has a beginning and an end, and he is used to wasting away his time in a muddle-headed manner, until 1957, which is the time when the novel begins. At that time, World War II had ended many years ago, his wife Man had passed away, and his children had grown up. Jack lived alone in Accra, Ghana, recording the past years in words amid aging, loneliness, hesitation and regret. What tormented Jack was not the sadness of his dying years, nor the disease, nor the cruel memories of the war, but his grief for his wife, a "gnashing guilt" that kept eating away at his soul. The title of the novel seems to be a satire on Jack's absurd life, a temporary gentleman for whom virtue seems to be forever fleeting.

"Dead Souls" is the cornerstone of the development of Russian critical realism literature and the pinnacle of Gogol's creation. The novel tells the story of a profit-seeking sixth-grade civil servant named Chichikov who bought and sold dead serfs. Chichikov came to a remote provincial city and became a guest of the local bureaucracy. He purchased dead serfs from the landlords in an attempt to exploit the loopholes and make huge profits. After the scandal was exposed, he fled. The words "serf" and "soul" in Russian have the same pronunciation, which reflects the dual meaning of the book's title. On the one hand, it refers to the main thread of buying and selling dead serfs that runs through the entire text. On the other hand, it also serves as a metaphor for the protagonist's own soul, revealing "his secret thoughts that are kept secret."
