On March 17, 1894, China and the United States signed the Treaty to Restrict Chinese Labor in the United States and Protect Chinese Residing in the United States, referred to as the Chinese Labor Treaty. It was an unequal treaty that the U. S. Government forced the Qing government to enter into in order to restrict and exclude Chinese in the United States. This treaty has made the situation of the Chinese in the United States, who have been bullied and abused, even more difficult, arousing strong indignation among the Chinese people. This book has twenty chapters in total. With this incident as the background, it covers three aspects: the abuse of Chinese workers who went to America, and the situation of anti-American Chinese workers in Shanghai and other places banning contracts and boycotting American goods. The content is profound and tragic. The author intends to oppose the "Chinese Labor Treaty" and imperialism, and advocates that the Chinese people share the same hatred of the enemy and jointly resist foreign aggression.

From November 1933 to February 1934, Hemingway, his second wife Pauline Pfeiffer, and his friend Carl went hunting in Kenya, East Africa. After returning, Hemingway expressed that he wanted to write a "most realistic book" that would be "comparable to fictional works", so he wrote "The Green Mountains of Africa". With astonishing memory and superb writing skills, Hemingway reproduces the hunting experience in the deep mountains and old forests of Africa, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the thrilling scenes of the author's battle of wits and courage with animals, and hear the unique African lion's roar. At the same time, Hemingway vividly describes his competitiveness and jealousy in the process of competing with Carl, "dissecting" himself mercilessly, and showing the candidness of a man. There is a passage in the book about the critics' praise and condemnation of writers, which makes me feel very warm when I read it today.

"Pnin" is Nabokov's humorous and autobiographical classic. The first four chapters were published in The New Yorker magazine. It was Nabokov's first novel that attracted widespread attention and popularity among American readers. It describes the life of an exiled old Russian professor teaching in an American university. He has a kind-hearted but eccentric personality, and is out of tune with his surroundings. He is often ridiculed by his colleagues, and his wife also abandoned him. He was alone, so he had no choice but to indulge in old papers and study ancient Russian culture and classical literature to comfort himself; recalling the past all the time, he showed a strong sense of nostalgia. Nabokov skillfully blended Russian culture and modern American civilization, and humorously and intelligently portrayed a distressed man who had lost his homeland, cut off his connection with his motherland's culture, and lost his love.

"Dark Fire" is an extremely strange novel by Nabokov, subverting people's inherent definition of novels. The novel consists of a preface, a four-chapter poem, commentary and index. Nabokov fictionalized a professor and poet Shade, and his colleague and neighbor Kim Porter. The poet left a long autobiographical poem after his death, and the neighbor wrote the preface, commentary, and index for the poem. The long poem only accounts for one-tenth of the book, but the commentary is very lengthy and cumbersome. The main body of the long poem talks about the poet's life, his dead daughter, his understanding of life, love, death, reality and illusion, etc. Through long comments, the neighbor interpreted the meaning of the poem as the story of the last king from the fictional country of Zambala. As an avant-garde exploratory writer, Nabokov was always looking for original novel forms. This intertextual structure with commentary as the main body reflects Nabokov's point of view: "Human life is nothing more than a series of notes added to an obscure and unfinished masterpiece."

If Platonov's creation is regarded as a utopian attempt, then the writer's main works can be divided into three types: future attempts, past attempts and present attempts. Different types of orphans realize their understanding of the world through three paths of finding their fathers: looking for the spiritual father, completing the mission of saving mankind and exploring the future; looking for the father of memory, following the water of memory to recall the past; looking for the father of the whole nation, following the current trend and facing reality. The writer created his own family fable, expressing his doubts about reality, remembrance of the past and thinking about the future through the theme of orphans, and reflecting his thoughts on the development path of the country through the incomplete family.

The feeling of orphans is not only the helplessness of losing their parents, but also the confusion of losing themselves, the panic of losing faith, the emptiness and despair of historical memory being separated...
