The Pirate = Пират: на англ.яз
Scott W.
Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a Scottish historical novelist, poet, and playwright. Although he was an advocate and legal administrator by profession, Scott is most famous for his great literary works and activities in the Royal Highland Society. Loosely based on the life of the notorious pirate John Gow, the novel tells the tale of Captain Cleveland, his feud with young Mordaunt Mertoun, and their relationships with Mina and Brenda Troll. Of course, as the genre dictates, it is full of romance, danger, and wonderful adventures.

The Pioneers = Пионеры. Т. 4: на англ.яз
Cooper J.F.
James Fenimore Cooper was a prolific and popular American writer of the first half of the 19th century. His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature. The fourth work chronologically in Cooper`s Leatherstocking Tales, The Pioneers is a historical novel that follows the later life of Natty Bumppo. Already introduced by the previous novels as the archetypal American frontiersman and friend to Indians, Natty now struggles with hunting and new societal laws that restrict the freedom of the wilderness he has always known. Just as accessible and enjoyable for today`s modern readers as it would have been when first published, the novel is one of the great works of...

The Picture of Dorian Gray
Dorian Gray is having his picture painted by Basil Hallward, who is charmed by his looks. But when Sir Henry Wotton visits and seduces Dorian into the worship of youthful beauty with an intoxicating speech, Dorian makes a wish he will live to regret: that all the marks of age will now be reflected in the portrait rather than on Dorian's own face. The stage is now set for a masterful tale about appearance, reality, art, life, truth, fiction and the burden of conscience. Oscar Wilde's only full-length novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray is a lasting gem of sophisticated wit and playfulness, which brings together all the best elements of his talent in a reinterpretation of the Faustian myth.

The Plays of Oskard Wilde
Oscar Wilde
Oscar Wilde took London by storm with his first comedy, "Lady Windermere`s Fan". The combination of dazzling wit, subtle social criticism, sumptuous settings and the theme of a guilty secret proved a winner, both here and in his next three plays, "A Woman of No Importance", "An Ideal Husband", and his undisputed masterpiece, "The Importance of Being Earnest". This volume includes all Wilde`s plays from his early tragedy "Vera" to the controversial "Salome" and the little known fragments, "La Sainte Courtisane" and "A Florentine Tragedy". The edition affords a rare chance to see Wilde`s best known work in the context of his entire dramatic output, and to appreciate plays which have hitherto received scant critical attention.

The Pastures of Heaven
Steinbeck John
ISBN: 9780141186092
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Wilde`s only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence. From its provocative Preface, challenging the reader to believe in `art for art`s sake`, to its sensational conclusion, the story self-consciously experiments with the notion of sin as an element of design. Yet Wilde himself underestimated the consequences of his experiment, and its capacity to outragethe Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he later recalled the `note of doom` which runs like `a purple thread` through its carefully crafted prose.
