When the gold miner was about to die, he left a map - the entire map of a volcano spewing gold - to the brothers.

However, when the Gold Volcano erupted, it sprayed gold into the air and fell into the vast waters of the Arctic Ocean.

In 1757, in the Hungarian city of Laz, the French painter Marc Vidal was about to hold a wedding to Milla, the daughter of the famous local doctor Roetlich. However, the German William Storlitz, who proposed to Mila a few months ago but failed to propose, used the invisibility skills left by his father to wantonly obstruct and sabotage their wedding: first he tore up the wedding notice many times, and then sang the German "Song of Hate" at the engagement party, trampled the bouquet, tore up the engagement, and took away the bride's crown... When they held their wedding in the church, Storlitz threw the wedding ring out and uttered a vicious curse. Mira fainted in Mark's arms on the spot. After doing this, Stolitz openly provoked the residents of the city and used invisibility to make Mira invisible. Finally, when Stolitz and his servant went to get the potion to remove the invisibility, they died under the vengeful knife of the doctor's son, Captain Haraland, and the secret of his invisibility was also buried with his death. The next year, Mira, who had been living an invisible life, finally lost the effect of the invisibility potion when she gave birth to a child.

This is an unparalleled epic of the 20th century. This book reproduces the large-scale battles and dramatic stories on the Western European battlefields from 1944 to 1945, and restores the thrilling process of the Allies occupying Europe at a huge cost and destroying the Third Reich. The Allied forces kicked off the decisive battle in Western Europe with the Normandy landing, and then captured the ill-fated French cities of Cherbourg and Paris, pointing their guns at the Ruhr area, Germany's industrial lifeline. Since then, the war on the Western Front has spread to Germany itself. In the subsequent Operation Market Garden, the Battle of Hürtgen Forest, and the thrilling Battle of the Bulge, the Allies suffered heavy losses, but they had cleared the way and drove straight into the heart of Nazi Germany, Berlin, with overwhelming force. At the same time, a bloody revenge action is about to begin. As a successful journalist and an outstanding historian, Atkinson uses superb writing skills and beautiful words to vividly describe the bold and risky military operations, and presents this history from the perspectives of different participants: arrogant senior officers and politicians, trembling soldiers in the trenches, Berlin civilians whimpering during plunder, burning and rape... Atkinson writes about those heavy sufferings and honors stained with blood and stains in a compassionate way.

If the fierce fighting on the European battlefield is a historical drama, then the North African campaign is the first act of this drama. Here, the British Empire was reduced to a vassal in the Anglo-American alliance, the Axis soldiers lost confidence in their officers and were unwilling to fight, while the United States showed its edge and became the leading force in the world. This book sets a monument to this forgotten history. It uses the dangerous Operation Torch as an entry point to sort out the tragic war between November 1942 and May 1942 when the Allied forces landed in French Morocco and Algeria, captured Tunisia, and annihilated the Axis African Corps. The newly formed Allied Forces were originally mired in disorganized logistical supplies, power struggles among allies, and endless military miscalculations. However, after experiencing the Judeid surprise attack, the tragic defeat at Kesselin Pass and the decisive battle at the Tunisian bridgehead, the US military who rushed into battle finally learned to hate and how to defeat the battlefield-hardened enemy. The author not only vividly describes Eisenhower, Patton, Montgomery and other outstanding commanders in North Africa, but also compassionately depicts the soldiers who fell in a pool of blood before they could draw their guns, the civilians who were ravaged in the war, and the miserable prisoners whose lives were cut off. Atkinson's realistic and terrifying North African battlefield tells the world that World War II is not a biography of a saint. Even though heroes and sages emerge in endlessly, there are also rats, fools and corrupt degenerates.

The novel is narrated in the third person, the characters have no names, and the location where the story takes place is exotic, while "Lolita" details the ins and outs of each element of the novel in the first person. Even setting aside its relationship with "Lolita", "The Magician" is still an interesting work and worth reading. The same book contains an introductory article by Nabokov's son Dmitry Nabokov.

"Transparent" is Nabokov's masterpiece, recognized as the master of novels in the 20th century. In it, Nabokov further developed an elegant writing style with a slow, almost languid pace. The protagonist, Hugh Person, is a melancholic and clumsy publisher who visited Switzerland four times in his life. He lost his father forever on the first trip, and met his future wife on the second trip. Eventually he embarks on a lonely sentimental journey, sweet-talking himself into his past. Person has been living in memories, insisting on staying in the same hotel every time he goes to Switzerland; at the same time, he tries his best to escape from memories, because memories can only bring pain. Nabokov writes about this ambivalence vividly, exploring the interplay between memories and reality with a light, transparent tone. The transparent world surrounding Person is an existence different from reality, and it is the silent history he carries.

"Armed peace" is recognized by European historians as the "key" to the outbreak of World War I. The Franco-Prussian War defeated France and Germany was unified. Why couldn't France be destroyed? What role did coordination among European powers play at the Berlin Conference? Why was the transition of the Second German Empire from the Bismarck era to the Wilhelm II era a strategic mistake? Why are there irreconcilable contradictions between the Austro-Hungarian Empire's coveting of the Balkan Peninsula and the Russian Empire's Pan-Slavism? Why did the Ottoman Empire lose to the Balkan Alliance in the First Balkan War? How did the uneven distribution of spoils in the Balkan Alliance trigger the Second Balkan War? How did the Moroccan crisis occur and be resolved? Was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Crown Prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, an official act of the Kingdom of Serbia or a private act? What happened in the critical twelve days before the outbreak of World War I? Why did the European coordination and ambassadorial conferences fail to prevent the outbreak of the First World War? This book will give detailed answers.

This book is a novel written by Norwegian novelist Alan Lew. The book tells the story of the protagonist Lu and a group of his friends who felt that they had not made much contribution to Norway. They wanted to make up for this, so they decided to go on an adventure. The purpose of the adventure was to prove one of Lu's absurd theories: He believed that the residents of the Pacific islands were South Americans long ago, and that the first batch of island immigrants skated across the South American continent when the Pacific Ocean froze. They felt that by proving this theory they could put Norway back on the world map and become a national hero. The second half of the book amounts to a journal of their adventures on a small island in the Pacific Ocean called the Cook Islands. This book continues Lu's method of writing novels as documentary literature among young people. The book provides a large amount of evidence, including photos of himself and his friends on the expedition, and even a scanned copy of a reply letter from the king's secretary, to "prove" that what he wrote is true.
