Adventures of Huckleberry Finn(哈克贝利·费恩历险记) 立即阅读
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a novel by Mark Twain, first published in the United Kingdom in December 1884 and in the United States in February 1885. Commonly named among the Great American Novels, the work is among the first in major American literature to be written throughout in vernacular English, characterized by local color regionalism. It is told in the first person by Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, a friend of Tom Sawyer and narrator of two other Twain novels. It is a direct sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
This masterful novel is a religious fable of sorts, written by the gifted Russian author Leo Tolstoy as a means of shedding light on the hypocrisy inherent in many aspects of organized religion in the nineteenth century. The book follows the plight of Russian aristocrat Dmitri Ivanovich Nekhlyudov as he seeks absolution -- both in the church and in his own psyche -- for a sin he committed years earlier.

Les Enfants du capitaine Grant est un roman d'aventures de Jules Verne, paru en 1868. L'action commence en 1864. Alors que Lord et Lady Glenarvan font une excursion au large de Glasgow à bord de leur yacht, le Duncan, l'équipage pêche un requin dans le ventre duquel on découvre une bouteille de champagne Veuve Clicquot qui contient un message de détresse en mauvais état, de la part d'un certain capitaine Grant et de deux de ses compagnons à cause du naufrage du Britannia. Ce message indique bien le degré de latitude (37° 11') du naufrage du Britannia, mais toute indication de longitude est devenue illisible. Heureusement, le capitaine Grant avait écrit trois messages identiques mais en trois langues différentes.
