[Passengers in the lives of Sanmao and Haruki Murakami, the original work of the Oscar-winning film. "If I were asked to choose a mentor in the world, I would definitely choose Zorba. He taught me to love life and not be afraid of death." Nikos Kazantzakis, one of the founders of new Greek literature, wrote in the preface to "Zorba the Greek": "If you have to ask who has left the deepest imprint on my soul, I can probably name three or four: Homer, Bergson, Nietzsche and Zorba. Homer is a superb and bright eye, shining like the sun. , Enlightens all things; Bergson rescued me from the philosophical problems that troubled me in my youth; Nietzsche added new anguish to me; and Zorba taught me to love life and not be afraid of death. "In this great work, the protagonist "I" is disgusted with the bleak years in the study, and wants to find real life experience, and happens to meet Zorba - an old man who wanders around, has experienced the joys and sorrows of the world, but is always full of fiery desire. The two set foot on Crete together to mine lignite. Zorba's passionate pursuit of Mrs. Hortense, the female shopkeeper, rekindled the youthful vitality of this lonely, aging woman. "I" secretly admired the plump widow in the village, but I was hesitant and wary of nature and man, and was afraid to obey the guidance of fleshly desires. Whenever the day's work was over, "I" and Zorba would light a bonfire at the beach, face the sunset and the sea, drink wine, play the piano, and listen to Zorba talk about the past - those were the most comfortable days in "I"'s life. Zorba once wandered around, worked as a Kreft militiaman in the mountains, and cut the heads of Turks; he once made a living on the sea, not killing people but stealing goods, and he was a living Sinbad. Zorba, who has only read one book, loves women, nature, and fine wine. He has done countless jobs, using his hands, feet, mind, and all the available parts of his body, never wasting a moment of his life. Zorba seems to have easily realized the meaning of life that "I" have been seeking. However, the widow, who was not tolerated by customs, finally died tragically at the hands of the villagers; Mrs. Hortense fell ill and died miserably shortly after her wedding to Zorba; "Zorba and I" built an unprecedented viaduct bridge according to the blueprint in our hearts. On the day it was built, the bridge collapsed and all the capital was wiped out. "We" had nothing but embraced each other passionately and danced wildly on the beach on the last night before we parted. Finally, Apollo also danced, and the world belonged to eternal Dionysus. After the separation, Zorba still wandered around, made love, danced, and proudly welcomed every morning and sunset in the world. In the end, Zorba is dying. "He grabbed the window frame tightly, looked towards the distant mountains, opened his eyes wide, laughed, and then neighed like a horse. Just like that, he stood there, dug his fingernails into the window frame, and died." This is the legendary life of Zorba the Greek.
