Features: Faced with the dazzling and colorful kingdom of world literature, people often sigh in despair because they lack enough time to appreciate its most beautiful scenery. To meet the readers' needs and help them obtain the most knowledge in the shortest time, we have invited a group of teachers who have been engaged in the research and teaching of Chinese and foreign literature in universities for many years to compile this book. This book faithfully summarizes 90 influential and internationally recognized world-class literary masterpieces from ancient and modern times. Except for the plot being loyal to the original works, the language and structure are also as close as possible to the style and appearance of the original works. It is different from simple content summaries; instead, it offers complete plots, characters, scenes, and dialogues, making it a highly readable book. After reading this book, readers can gain a bird's-eye view of world literature, especially in fiction and drama. This revised and reprinted edition has refined the author by removing some works that did not qualify as "first-class" from the previous version and adding three world-class masterpieces: "War and Peace," "Ulysses," and "In Search of Lost Time," making the selection more refined and representative than before.
