This book is a collection of poems by the famous New York School poet Frank O'Hara, including thirty poems such as "To the Harbor Master," "To the Movie Industry in Times of Distress," "Obstacles," "Yellow Notes," and "From an April." O'Hara's poems adopt colloquial language and an open structure, are improvisational and anti-rational, and have a sense of absurdity and dreaminess in their humor and wit. They highlight the poet's personality and create a poetic style that is anti-elegant and anti-noble. The famous poetry critic Helen Vendler said: "Some of O'Hara's poems really deserve to be famous all over the world, just because there is such a reason around the world: this type of poetry has not yet appeared in the English language."

"War and Peace" is a great work that took the great Russian writer Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) 13 years to complete. In the history of world literature, it is the pinnacle of novels. Leo Tolstoy, who was born into a Russian aristocratic family, was the greatest Russian writer in the 19th century. He created a large number of literary works throughout his life and made unparalleled contributions to Russian and world literature. He is recognized as one of the most outstanding literary giants in the world. "War and Peace" centers on the Patriotic War in 1812, when Russia opposed Napoleon's invasion, and reflects a series of major historical events in Russia from 1805 to 1820. The novel begins with a debate in an aristocratic salon about Napoleon's invasion of Europe in 1805. It goes through the Battle of Schengraben where Russia blocked the French army, the Battle of Austerlitz where the Russian and Austrian forces fought Napoleon's army, and the French occupation of Moscow, the Battle of Borodino, the Great Fire of Moscow, and the complete collapse of Napoleon's army. The novel takes as its main line the chronicles of the family lives of four aristocratic families: Kuragin, Rostov, Bolkonsky and Bezhuhoff, and focuses on the fate and future of the Russian aristocracy. In the alternating scenes of war and peace, the entire work exposes the corruption of the palace bureaucracy and the upper-class nobility, praises the patriotism of the people, and raises many major social, philosophical and moral issues.

It vividly reproduces the struggle life of the guerrillas in the Ussuri Border Region in the Far Southeast in 1919: Communist Party member Levinson led the guerrillas in a bloody battle with the vicious Japanese interventionist army and the white bandit Kolchak. Due to being outnumbered, the entire army was almost wiped out. However, the 19 surviving soldiers were not afraid of the danger and finally broke out of the encirclement. The novel carefully portrays the glorious image of Levinson, and also lashes out at Mechik's wavering betrayal of extreme bourgeois individualism. Lu Xun translated "Destruction" into Chinese and published it in 1931. Mao Zedong highly praised this novel in his "Speech at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art".

The novel "Sha Ning" begins when the protagonist Shan Ning returns to his hometown and ends when he leaves by train. It writes about what he did during that time in his hometown. Shan Ning left home when he was young, and his character was developed outside the family. He was as free as "a tree in the wilderness." He has an indifferent attitude towards everything and hates almost everyone around him. He spent the night with the farmer's granddaughter, and took possession of the beautiful female teacher Karlsavina on a boat on the river on a moonlit night. He even had impulses for his sister Lida; he beat the officer Zarudin and shattered the fantasy of the Jewish young Solovychik, which directly led to the relationship between these two people. He committed suicide; he hated almost everyone around him, even his own relatives, and was always indifferent to the death of acquaintances, thinking that there was another fool missing in the world; he was tall, strong, smart and flexible, and could do whatever he wanted. At the same time, he was lonely, bored, and wandering. This image appeared in an era when Russian intellectuals generally felt lost and depressed, and was therefore regarded as a symbol of the overall "degeneration" of the Russian cultural elite.
