1. A Dream of Red Mansions by Cao Xueqin

Based on the rise and fall of Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue families, the work depicts the life of a group of beautiful women in the boudoir from the perspective of Jia Baoyu, a rich son, and shows the true beauty and tragedy of human nature.

Some people say that A Dream of Red Mansions is an encyclopedia of feudal society in China and a master of traditional culture.

Insight Jun prefers to call it: The Encyclopedia of China Traditional Culture.

It can be said that it is not only the peak of China's classical novels, but also the treasure of world literature for thousands of years.

2. "Living" Yu Hua

This book tells the story of the protagonist Xu Fugui and his family who suffered many times under social changes such as the Civil War and the Great Leap Forward.

With the death of parents, children, wife, son-in-law and grandson, Fu Gui was alone, and finally only an old cow accompanied him in the sunshine.

Some people say that he is fighting against fate and wants to protect his love and warmth, but fate is always tearing at his remaining warmth.

Living may be the last dignity of life.

3. A Hundred Years of Solitude Garcia Marquez

By describing the legendary story of seven generations of Buendia family, this book reflects the century-long rise and fall of Macondo, a small town on the Caribbean coast, and the changeable history of Latin America in the past century.

Through this novel, Marquez created a condensed universe, which brought together the most incredible miracle and the purest real life.

In China, it is no exaggeration to say that this genius-like classic has influenced the flow of the long river of China literature and had a far-reaching impact on later literary creation.

4. Hamlet Shakespeare

Hamlet was completed in 160 1, which is the highest achievement of Shakespeare, a giant in the Renaissance.

The work is a wonderful blend of sublime and humble, terrible and ridiculous, hero and clown, and is regarded as an excellent classic in human history.

It is not only a sad song of humanism, but also a great epic sung by human mind.

5. The moon and sixpence Mao Mu

Mao Mu's masterpiece swept the world in the 20th century.

Banker Charles, a middle-aged man with a successful career, suddenly abandoned his wife and children and ran away from home in pursuit of his secret painting dream. He gave up all the reality without hesitation, and injected all the life values into a canvas of Zhang Huali. It seems that every painting is shouting, the ideal is priceless, and the right to choose freely is priceless.
