44-46題為題組Even though they were written 150 years ago, Alexander Dumas’ action novels still excite millions of readers around the world, in close to a hundred languages.Dumas’s two most famous stories, The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, have inspired more than 100 films. His 1848 novel, The Man in the Iron Mask, was recently made into a movie. In this movie, Leonardo DiCaprio played both King Louis XIV and his twin brother Philippe.Few people know, however, that the author was the grandson of a Haitian slave. Even fewer people know that Dumas’ father rose rapidly from a soldier to a general in the French Army before he was 31. The general died young, leaving Alexander penniless. But Dumas overcame poverty, the lack of formal education, and the hardship of racism to become one of the world’s most popular writers.Dumas’s life sometimes was just like his action novels. He participated in three revolutions and fought with people when he was insulted. After making a fortune by writing novels, he built a mansion outside Paris and kept it open to starving artists, friends, and even strangers. Luckily for his fans, the mansion has recently been restored and opened to the public.

即使它們是150年前寫的，亞歷山大·杜馬的動作小說仍然以近百種語言激發了全世界數百万讀者的興趣。杜馬斯的兩個最著名的故事，三個火槍手和基督山伯爵，已經啟發了100多部電影。他1848年的小說“鋼鐵面具中的男人”最近成了一部電影。在這部電影中，萊昂納多迪卡普里奧扮演了路易十四國王和他的雙胞胎兄弟菲利普。然而，很少有人知道作者是海地奴隸的孫子。更少的人知道，在31歲之前，杜馬的父親在法國軍隊中從一名士兵迅速崛起為一名將軍。這位將軍年輕時去世，讓亞歷山大身無分文。但是，杜馬克服了貧困，缺乏正規教育，以及種族主義成為世界上最受歡迎的作家之一的艱辛。杜馬的生活有時就像他的動作小說一樣。他參與了三次革命，並在受到侮辱時與人民進行了鬥爭。在寫完小說後發了大財，他在巴黎以外建了一座豪宅，讓它對飢餓的藝術家，朋友甚至是陌生人開放。幸運的是，對於他的粉絲來說，這座豪宅最近已經修復並向公眾開放。
