Next I want to talk about another novel, but it is completely different from the previous one.It was Prevot's Manon Lescaut.The characters in the book are not as noble souls as those in "Princess Clive", who can face the bleak situation directly. They are fragile and make mistakes, but they touch people's hearts, because in them, we also see our own weak.This is a book full of humanity.I envy those who read this wonderful book for the first time.No matter how many mistakes Manon made, she was still so fresh, so natural and so charming! How touching is Des Grieux's long love for this fiduciary woman!weak?Yes, he is weak.burden?Of course, she is a burden.She is fickle, mercenary and cruel, yet loving, generous and gentle.Such an image is immortal, and I think it will take a long time before the memory of the beautiful Manon in the hearts of male readers will slowly recede.
