Човек, толкова измъчен, колкото и обичан, Оскар Уайлд (1854 - 1900) преодолява живота на необикновени възходи и падения, за да стане световноизвестен драматург, писател и поет. Запомнен най-вече с романа Портретът на Дориан Грей, пиесата Значението да бъдеш сериозен и широка гама изключително цитирани епиграми, той е един от най-влиятелните писатели от Викторианската епоха. Работата на Оскар Уайлд е изпълнена с прозренията на човек, който притежава дълбоко разбиране както за положителните страни, така и за опасностите на обществото. Критикуван за това, което се възприема като женствена природа и потиснат от до голяма ... |

Complete and unabridged. A pocket sized book - 10 x 15.5 cm. ... The four great comedies of Oscar Wilde, "Lady Windermere's Fan", "A Woman of No Importance", "An Ideal Husband" and "The Importance of Being Earnest", were all written at the height of the controversial Irish author's powers in his last, doomed decade, the 1890s. They remain among the most-loved, and most-quoted, of all drama in the English language. Along with Salome, his darkly decadent dramatization of the Bible story, these immortal plays continue to pack theatres, and have been adapted for every kind of ... |

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day and then ages out. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, as he has thought deeply about where creativity comes from and where it doesn't, he has learned that being an artist isn't about your specific output; it' ... |

"The Call of the Wild" tells the story of Buck, a domestic dog who is kidnapped from his home in California and forced to pull sleds in the Arctic wasteland. White Fang, by contrast, is the tale of a crossbreed who is three-quarters wolf and a quarter dog, and who must endure considerable suffering in the wilderness before being tamed by an American and taken to live in California.
