H

British national writer McEwan's latest novella, When Kafka Encountered "Brexit", is a tribute to "The Metamorphosis"; a bilingual masterpiece, an authentic appreciation of McEwan's elegant and wise writing style; exquisite structure, bold innovation, inheriting the legacy of Jonathan Swift. "Cockroach" is McEwan's latest novella, which describes the magical experience of a cockroach: after crawling from the Houses of Parliament to the Prime Minister's residence, after waking up, the cockroach found that it had occupied the body of Prime Minister Jim Sams, and at the same time became the most powerful man in Britain. As the British Prime Minister, Jim Sams's mission is to realize the will of the people - to implement "reversalism" in the UK and even to promote it around the world. Neither opposition outside the party, dissidents within the party, nor the principles of parliamentary democracy can hinder the new prime minister from completing his mission. In addition to the novel's obvious tribute to Kafka's classic work "The Metamorphosis", McEwan also inherited the mantle of Jonathan Swift and used the ancient form of political satire to express his feelings about the dilemma of Britain's "Brexit" and brought the art form of irony to an unparalleled height. At the same time, this novella, which is exquisitely structured and boldly innovative, still displays typical McEwan wisdom and smooth writing style. The bilingual text in Chinese and English allows readers to appreciate McEwan's elegant and wise words in an original way while appreciating the Chinese translation.

"My life is his fraternal sibling, a parody of him." Nabokov's last complete novel before his death, a "dying man"'s self-mockery, reveals the mysteries of memory and creation. A wonderful work that Nabokov fans should not miss. It blends fantasy and reality to create another self. It is a joking review of his writing life at the age of seventy-five. "Look, Those Clowns" is the masterpiece of Nabokov's novels, recognized as the master of novels in the 20th century, and it is also the last complete novel he wrote during his lifetime. A dying man carefully uncovers the mysteries of memory and creation, like a satirical drama showing the relationship between real life and the imaginary world. There are inextricable connections between the Russian-American writer Vadim Vadimovich, the protagonist of the novel, and Nabokov himself: a Russian émigré, novelist, poet and critic. He tells a first-person account of his life, from young love to serious illness, his four wives, his works, and the sources of his inspiration. In his twilight years, Nabokov buried countless puzzles and codes in Vadim and incorporated many themes involved in previous novels. All of this transcended the boundaries of his works and life itself, as if he had reconstructed another life and another possibility of his own. It is a wonderful work that true Nabokov fans cannot miss.

In chronological order, the novel describes the real experiences and thoughts of the protagonist - Leopold Blum, a depressed and wandering Dublin citizen and advertising salesman, during the day and night in Dublin on June 16, 1904.

Ulysses)'s ten years at sea, while depicting his unfaithful wife Molly and the psychological journey of "Stephen Hero" in search of his spiritual father. The novel makes extensive use of detailed descriptions and stream-of-consciousness techniques to construct an intertwined and messy time and space, forming a unique style in language.

This collection is based on the first ten volumes of the 30-volume "The Complete Works of Chekhov" published in the Soviet Union. It contains all of Chekhov's novels. It is the true "Complete Collection of Chekhov's Novels and Novels" in the Chinese-speaking world. It is led by teacher Wang Shouren of the Academy of Social Sciences.

But praise, praise, praise. This is a group of people who live a boring life without any complaints: grassroots managers of printing plants or leather companies, girls who live in poverty because they do not accept support from their parents, special assistants who dream of becoming writers... The author uses a seemingly distant, but actually emotional writing style to tell the story of how they fell in love in daydreams, gained enlightenment from the cityscapes they watched over and over, and used strange fantasies to save the residents of the desolate town while also saving themselves, revealing how reality can be changed by a tender encounter or an insignificant moment.

Reconnaissance Aircraft

S

123K0

Scout planes are lifeless - until someone brings them home. Activate the connection and open your eyes: behind the camera is a stranger from anywhere in the world, randomly selected by the anonymous server. Strangers virtually inhabit the bodies of small animals through remote control, and also enter the lives of pet owners to spy on and track them. Each "reconnaissance machine" only has one life. If either the "machine owner" or the "machine controller" interrupts the connection or the battery is exhausted, the little animal will fall asleep completely and the game will end. "Detective Machine" is a thought experiment by Schwebelin, the master of weird fantasy novels: In a world that relies on virtual connections, can online experiences allow people to see themselves and others? While technology empowers humans, will it also regress us emotionally, paving the way for unimaginable horrors? When physical isolation and surveillance become the norm, and when face-to-face encounters in the real world are almost a threat, humans will still explore the boundaries between real life and surreality.
