I don't have any actual extra-cursory reading experience, but I can list some common foreign literature works and the characters in them. 1. Harry Potter series: The Harry Potter series is a magical fantasy novel written by K Rowling in the United Kingdom. It tells the story of an orphan, Harry Potter, who discovers that he is a wizard on his 11th birthday and begins an adventure. Harry was a brave, intelligent, and curious boy, and his friends included Hermione and Ron. Pride and Predict: The novel Pride and Predict by Austin, England, tells the love story between Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, as well as the conflicts in their family and social life. Elizabeth was a smart, kind and independent girl. Darcy was a handsome, rich and arrogant boy. His friends included Elizabeth's cousin, Bill Black. 3. The Catcher in the Rye: The novel The Catcher in the Rye by D. Salinger of the United States tells the story of the growth of Holden Caulfield, a teenager in the 1950s. Holden is a rebellious, lonely, and eager to understand boy. His friends include Holden's neighbor, Tim Hadasson, and others. The characters in these works have their own unique personalities and characteristics, which are all important elements of this novel.
