Features: Six Paths. Six People. Faust, Don Juan, Hamlet, Don Quixote each leave their mark on their own journey, but every path leads to the same destination. "The great miracle is at hand, the time has come!" In our society, there have always been too few figures like Faust, Don Juan, or Don Quixote. Though they may appear clumsy, the progress of society relies on such seemingly inept individuals. Six paths lead to the Sphinx, six paths from foreign lands converge here, united by the same goal. On each path, a wanderer moves forward, burdened by the harsh curse of fate. They step steadily toward this distant world, faintly visible in the heavens, a world that is vast in space but close at hand in their hearts. Mr. Shen Changwen, when discussing the translation and publication of this book, remarked with emotion, "What I couldn't achieve in years, this talented young man accomplished in no time at all. This only demonstrates the fruits of the open and reform-oriented publishing industry today."
