A staggering and audacious undertaking - seeking, in Milton's words, to justify the ways of God to men - Paradise Lost has been revered since its initial publication, inspiring writers from Mary ... |

И защо в този свят няма хора, а котки, гълъби, тигри, катерици, маймуни? И с кого разговаря ... |
