Peter Pan

"Who doesn't know a boy who didn't want to become an adult? Of course, everyone knows Peter Pan!.. After all, there is a child in everyone's soul who does not want to grow up for anything. This was especially felt by James Barry, who wrote in his novelistic work about a lost boy who did not want his parents to find him and raise him. And when Barry started writing for children… Children's works more fully reflected the main features of his work: reality is often mixed with fiction, and humor and comic situations are fanned with bright sadness. 'Peter Pan' is a story full of adventures and funny, and sometimes even dangerous, characters: sweet Wendy, her brothers John and Michael, the nanny dog Nana, the flighty fairy Ding-Dili-Don, as well as Lost Boys, the ferocious pirate Captain Hook-Hook, who instead of one hand has a terrible iron hook, red Indians, pirates and various animals. Peter and the fairy persuade Wendy and her brothers to escape to the land of Nowhere, where friends settle in an underground house, swim in the lagoon, experience many terrible adventures and return home after Peter's victory over the pirates. Unfortunately, all adventures, as well as childhood, come to an end sometime... Enjoy the fairy tale story read in the original, which glorified its author"

The Picture of Dorian Gray: Английский язык. 9-10 классы

"Written in his distinctively dazzling manner, Oscar Wilde's story of a fashionable young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty is the author's most popular work. The tale of Dorian Gray's moral disintegration caused a scandal when it first appeared in 1890, but though Wilde was attacked for the novel's corrupting influence, he responded that there is, in fact, 'a terrible moral in Dorian Gray.' Just a few years later, the book and the aesthetic/moral dilemma it presented became issues in the trials occasioned by Wilde's homosexual liaisons, which resulted in his imprisonment. Of Dorian Gray's relationship to autobiography, Wilde noted in a letter, 'Basil Hallward is what I think I am: Lord Henry what the world thinks me: Dorian what I would like to be—in other ages, perhaps.'"

When the very darkest moments of Emma's past finally emerge, she must somehow prove to Leo that she really is the woman he always thought she was . . . But first, she must tell him about the other love of her life. •«Love of Life» •«The Story of Keesh» •«The White Silence» •«Grit of Women» •«The Marriage of Lit-lit» •«The White Man's Way» •«The Story of Jees Uck»"
