I first encountered the classics at 19,when I studied English literature at
university.But a lack of life experience,combined with exams,essay deadlines and
an obsession with good grades,left me little time to truly sink in.Middlemarch,The
Picture of Dorian Gray,Pride and Prejudice,Madame Bovary:I loved these books,
yet I never got the chance to deeply engage with them.
Some 40 years later,as an editor,it's now my job to figure out what makes a
book tick or more often,what it needs to make it tick.So,when a colleague
suggested we deconstruct classics to find their "secret to lasting appeal,"I was
intrigued.I decided to reread Middlemarch,which I had loved before but never
fully grasped.I did hesitate a bit,though:could I,with my attention constantly
distracted by technology,handle its 900 pages of tiny print
Not wanting to hold back entirely,I tried the audiobook instead.The audio's
vivid delivery certainly drew me in,but what truly took me aback was the new
understanding that came with age.Themes that felt distant at 19 came into sharp
focus at 60:ideas of marriage,ambition,and unmet expectations that had flown
over my younger head now echoed (deeply within me.I also noticed striking
parallels in other classic characters:Emma's desire for an "ideal life"in Madame
Bovary mirrors the social comparison we see on social media today,and the
obsession with youth in The Picture of Dorian Gray reflects our selfie-obsessed
culture.
Then came the real work:taking them apart to see why they're classics.Some
were easy to analyse,others tricky,but we gave them the attention they deserved
more than I ever could at 19.What struck me most was that classics endure not
for their age,but for capturing universal human truths:desires,fears,and hopes
that never fade.Rereading them isn't just about revisiting old tales;it reconnects
us to our unchanging human nature,enriches our understanding of time,and
grows with us as we do.
24.What is implied about the first encounter with classics
A.It was mainly for academic success.
B.It enriched the author's experience.
C.It proved too difficult for the author.
D.It failed to obtain full appreciation.
