British books recommended by Maugham
Madame de la Fayette, "Madame Clive"
Reason for recommendation: It is one of the earliest psychological novels. In the novel, the character's character gradually changes under mental pressure. I think it is the most natural description among the novels I have read.
Abbé Prevot's "Manon Lesgaud"
Reason for recommendation: A novel full of human touch that any reader will find interesting.
Voltaire's "Candide"
Reasons for recommendation: His short length contains infinite wisdom, humor, teasing, reason and fun. It is unprecedented to compress such rich content into such a short length.

Malzac's "Petro Goriot"
Reason for recommendation: It can best reflect his ever-changing creativity.
Stendhal "The Red and the Black"
Reason for recommendation: Stendhal is my favorite novelist. The first two-thirds of the novel are the best among all novels.
Stendhal "The Abbey of Parma"
Reason for recommendation: I like Stendhal's simple and precise style, as well as his calm and meticulous psychological analysis, which can be said to have a unique insight into human psychological activities.
Flaubert's "Madame Bovary"
Reason for recommendation: This is a milestone in the history of modern novels.
Benjamin Constant "Adolphe"
Reason for recommendation: Most writers are accustomed to writing about the emergence of love, but Constant is on the contrary. He describes the decline of love in a rare and focused style. This work is a true response to human nature.

Reason for recommendation: It is a great romantic romance novel.
Anatole France's "Box of Pearls"
Reasons for recommendation: His writing style is meticulous and nuanced, and this style is at its best in this short story.

French books recommended by Maugham
Benjamin Franklin "Autobiography"
Reasons for recommendation: There are very few autobiographies mentioned in the history of American literature, but this one is extremely interesting and has a smooth narrative. He also successfully painted a portrait of himself that was both vivid and believable.
Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter"
Reason for recommendation: This book is very famous. Hawthorne has made a very wonderful portrayal of human nature, and his writing style is also very profound. The preface of the moving novel "Customs" is more interesting than the novel itself.
Thoreau's "Walden"
Reason for recommendation: This book is written very smoothly, with a relaxed and elegant style, allowing you to discover the secret of "contentment and happiness".
Emerson's "English Character"
Reason for recommendation: Because he had to write about many specific things, this book is not easily framed by some empty thoughts, so it is more vivid, relevant and interesting than his other books.
Henry James "The Americans"
Reasons for recommendation: Her story-telling talent is indeed superb, and the suspense design in the story is the use of wonderful dramatic scenes skillfully, so she can attract you from beginning to end.
Melville's "Moby-Dick"
Reason for recommendation: His best chapters are so vigorously written, so simple and clear.
"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain
Reasons for recommendation: This is his best work, a true masterpiece. He pioneered American dialect literature, which has now proved to be the source of inspiration for many of the most typical and best American writers today.
Parkman's "The Oregon Trail"
Reason for recommendation: He used wilderness as the theme and wrote a book that is interesting from beginning to end.
"Leaves of Grass" by Walter Whitman
Reasons for recommendation: His works have finally found the pure and authentic American characteristics we have been looking for, truly free from European influence. He is also the most explosive of all poets.
