【REVIEW】 The French Lieutenant’s Woman (1969) is the most prestigious work of the British experimentalism novelist John Fowles (1926 ~ 2005). The novel tells the emotional entanglement between Charles and fiancée Ernestina and Sarah, who is known as the “French lieutenant woman.” The difference with traditional novels is that the author arranges three different outcomes for the novel. One of them was that Charles was restrained by his infatuation with Sarah and married his fiancée, Tina, with seven children. The second is that Charles decided to lift the marriage contract with Tina and Sarah, but Sarah suddenly disappeared. After several twists and turns, Charles found Sarah and reunited with her. The final result was that after Charles found the missing Sarah, the two still broke up. The article is an introduction to the author False and the novel’s content.
