每個(gè)人一生至少應(yīng)該讀一次的書(shū)

The greatest books are defined as classics for a reason. Written by the greatest literary minds of their time, they have universal themes, characters, experiences, emotions and perspectives that are still relevant today. Some of them are the very inspiration from which entire modern genres of literary fiction have sprung up from.

最偉大的書(shū)被定義為經(jīng)典是有原因的。由他們那個(gè)時(shí)代最偉大的文學(xué)頭腦所寫(xiě)的這些作品，主題、人物、經(jīng)歷、情感和視角都是共通的，時(shí)至今日依然適用。其中一些是整個(gè)現(xiàn)代文學(xué)小說(shuō)流派產(chǎn)生的靈感源泉。

If you love reading, here’s a perfect reading list for you.

如果你喜歡閱讀，這里有一個(gè)完美的閱讀清單。

Everyone should read at least once for these books — some are well known classics, others are modern giants. All are well worth reading at least once in your life!

對(duì)于這些書(shū)，每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該至少讀一次——有些是著名的經(jīng)典著作，有些是現(xiàn)代巨著。在你的一生中，所有的書(shū)都值得一讀!
