On November 10, "Murder on the Orient Express" was put on the big screen again after 43 years, starring Kenneth Branagh, Penelope Cruz, Willem Dafoe, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp and many other top actors. In 1974, Ingrid Bergman won an Oscar for the film of the same name adapted from the book, and the Queen of England attended the premiere of the film. This book is based on the sensational real-life case "The Kidnapping of Lindbergh's Sons" in 1932, which vividly demonstrates the author's profound skill in portraying group portraits. Detective Poirot completed a commission in Syria and wanted to return home on the Simplon Orient Express. The strange thing is that it seems that people all over the world choose to travel on that night, and it is hard to get a ticket for this luxury train, which always has ample berths. Fortunately, he met his good friend Mr. Booker, the director of the International Bus Company, and then he squeezed into the car. After midnight, a heavy snowfall forced the Simplon to stop. Early the next morning, everyone discovered that one passenger was missing. An American died in his box, stabbed twelve times, but the door to his box was locked. As the investigation deepened, the case seemed to become more complicated and confusing. Detective Poirot came up with two completely different explanations...

If there is any female writer who deserves to be proud of women all over the world, Agatha is definitely one of them. Agatha is the writer whose works have been translated the most in the world (second only to Jules Verne). What an achievement this is. I remember watching Murder on the Orient Express when I was very young. Its completely unexpected and incredible ending shocked me for a long time. Whether you are a mystery fan or not, you must not miss Agatha's works.

What is the nine-story demon tower under the great glacier of Kunlun Mountain? It contains the tombs of the disappeared kings of the ancient demon kingdom, the strange burial ditch, the mysterious mica, the nine-story "gold" tower underground, and the piles of dried bones in strange ancient costumes. Are there any unknown creatures here? Fire ladybugs are attacking from the sky, and huge mysterious crawling monsters are coming. A group of people are desperately trying to survive!

As I said before, I have read only a handful of online novels, and Ghost Blowing the Lamp is one of them (I read it from the reading corner of the department). Everyone is familiar with ghost blowing lanterns and needs no introduction. I will just talk about its advantages. First, the writing style is good, and it seems effortless to talk about it. Second, it is rich in imagination, but not exaggerated, and there is no extravagant plot. Third, the author has very upright views and does not advocate some bad values. The last and most important thing is that the female protagonist is very lovable, independent, brave, mature, calm, and fights side by side with the male protagonist and works together. I remember one time when the male protagonist was in danger, the female protagonist anxiously jumped down several stairs. This kind of subconscious action description was more touching than the oath of love between each other.

The most classic collection of science fiction short stories by Kobayashi Taizo, a Japanese science fiction novelist and winner of the Nebula Award. It contains seven romantic science fiction masterpieces. It won the "Science Fiction Magazine" Reader Award, was selected for the Japan SF Award, and ranked on the All Time Best SF list. The story is either gentle or sentimental, and has been called "Japan's "Interstellar"". It perfectly presents the rigorous and meticulous fantasy world set by "Bai Xiaolin". It is an excellent text for understanding modern Japanese science fiction, and it is also a classic that science fiction fans cannot miss.

They say that hard science fiction writers are not good at writing about emotions. That's because you haven't seen Taizo Kobayashi's "The Man Who Watches the Sea". This work describes the ups and downs of love between two young people who live on the edge of a black hole because time passes at different speeds. The novel is full of Japanese delicacy and sadness, with a touch of desperate beauty in the fantasy. It is definitely a work that female science fiction fans cannot miss. I also recommend his Drunk Step Man and book for tomorrow. Many of his works are a bit curious, and those who like them will definitely like them.

Jules Verne was a 19th-century French science fiction master and is known as the "Father of Science Fantasy." His works are clean, complex and all-encompassing. This set of books selects many of Verne's famous works, which fully expresses Verne's unique artistic thinking. Reading these science fiction stories can help inspire human wisdom and inspire enthusiasm for loving and pursuing science, thereby comprehensively improving our scientific and cultural qualities.

Curator

Fans of Verne's novels should be familiar to science fiction fans. Many people's enlightenment science fiction is his works. The strength of Verne's works lies in the combination of science fiction and literature. Even if the science fiction elements are discarded, Verne's works are still very good literary works. In addition, there are many adventure elements in his works. Those who like adventure themes may also want to read his books.

Tolstoy's autobiographical trilogy "Childhood", "Boyhood" and "Youth" comprehensively display the writer's growth and spiritual process. The basic content revolves around how he grew up under the influence of the surrounding environment, and basically reproduces how he grew from a young master in an aristocratic family to an adult who opposed the aristocratic lifestyle. "Childhood" is the first of an autobiographical trilogy and Tolstoy's debut novel.

Curator

Gorky's childhood trilogy may not be liked by many people because it mostly describes the lives of the lower class people. But this book is my favorite Russian book (excluding science fiction). Gorky's writing ability is very strong, and the life of the people at the bottom he describes is rich and delicate. What is more valuable is that the whole book reveals a positive and optimistic attitude. Personally, I think this is a work that can rival Dream of Red Mansions (in terms of descriptive ability).

Wuthering Heights is a very unique work. People who like it may like it very much, and people who hate it may hate it. Although it describes love themes often written by women, it does not become clichéd, nor is it obsessed with creating unrealistic romance. Instead, it is filled with darkness, madness, and hysteria. Compared to Charlotte Brontë's "tyrannical boss" complex, I prefer Emily's beast-like primitive love. By the way, Emily's poems are very good and are the best among the three sisters.

Because of the limitations of women's living environment and social status, women's novels often have a distinct gender imprint. Even today, with the liberation of women, the limitations of women's works are still very obvious. However, there are always a few works that break through the traditional female vision and reach unprecedented heights in female works, and Gone with the Wind is one of them. This is a work that women all over the world should be proud of.

Edgar Allan Poe's novels are full of gorgeous imagination, grotesque and bizarre, shrouded in a fog of terror, and possess a unique mysterious charm. "The Murder in the Rue Mauger", "The Mystery of Marie Roget", "The Stealing of Letters" and "The Golden Beetle" tell the story of solving mysteries; "The Tell-Tale Heart" and "The Black Cat" are bizarre and weird stories, murder is not the focus, but the horrific artistic conception, the release of morbid emotions, and the unexpected ending are the focus; "The Remaining Life of the Maelstrom" tells the story of a sailor who was drawn into the maelstrom and almost died, but in the end It is a thrilling story of escaping from death; "Manuscript in a Bottle" is about being in danger on the tropical ocean and encountering a ghost ship; "William Wilson" is a profound and true story. The protagonist Wilson went to the same university that Poe attended. It can be said to be the self-portrait and portrayal of Edgar Allan Poe. This novel describing dual personality has had a profound influence on some great writers in later generations. Every story selected in the book is unique, thrilling, and fascinating.

I really like The Collapse of the House of Osher and The Mask of the Red Death. If you also like Gothic novels, then you must not miss Edgar Allan Poe's works.

"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" is a novel published in 1876 by American writer Mark Twain, and it is also one of his masterpieces. The protagonist Tom Sawyer is innocent and lively, likes fantasy and adventure, cannot bear the boring life that restricts his personality, and dreams of doing a heroic career. The work describes the free and lively minds of children in a cheerful style. With its humor with local characteristics and keen observation of characters, the work has become one of the greatest children's literature works. Mr. Zhang Yousong is the most famous and distinctive Chinese translator of Mark Twain's works in my country. His translation is the classic translation of "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer".

Curator

Many books about children actually write about children from an adult's perspective. This is not the case with this book. It completely writes about the real world of children, and does not create some messy insights and does not bring in adult thinking. In addition, Mark Twain also had a good grasp of the children's personality characteristics, and did not stereotype the children, such as innocent and cute, naughty and mischievous. It is a leader in children's novels.

"Chinese Classical Literature Masterpiece Series: A Dream of Red Mansions" takes the love tragedy of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu as the main line, and charts the rise and fall of the four major families of Jia, Wang, Shi and Xue. With vivid characters and poignant love, it is an eternal wonder book that can't be read to the end or described endlessly. "Chinese Classical Literature Series: Dream of Red Mansions", which is well-known to both women and children, can be said to have condensed Cao Xueqin's lifelong efforts.

Curator

The pinnacle of classical literature. The only book I have read dozens of times. The more I learn to write, the more I realize the power of Cao Xueqin. To borrow the words of a teacher: I didn't like Dream of Red Mansions when I was young. But now that I am middle-aged, I realize that this is indeed a great book and it is insurmountable.

He may be the only person who has written commercial novels (excluding special categories such as mystery and science fiction) into the palace of literature. The pinnacle representative of purely commercial novels, its characters, rhythm, and plot are absolutely hundreds of years ahead of the world. Especially the characters! If you are an anime fan, you will find the Musketeer-style combination in countless popular works: a hot-blooded male protagonist, a handsome, funny, and powerful supporting male. Even the settings of the heroine, supporting actress and villain are definitely ahead of their time. It can be said that this is an epic textbook that has been adapted countless times since ancient times. If you are interested in writing commercial novels, then this is the most qualified book to teach you. If you don't believe me, just click on it and read the first four chapters without reading too much. You will find that there is no reason why this book can stand out among many commercial novels and conquer readers of all ages. It is still popular today. This is really an admirable work, and it is a well-deserved masterpiece.
