“The Age of Innocence” is the best-known novel by the American writer Edith Wharton (1862—1937) for which she got the Pulitzer Prize. The action of the novel unfolds in the 70s of the 19th century and, by the author’s confession, it was her escape into the memories of childhood about America which had disappeared long ago, the attempt to reconcile that old world with the new one which arose after the First World War. The writer touchingly and at the same time ironically narrates the story of love of Newland Archer, a respectable young lawyer, and Countess Olenska, an extravagant cousin of his bride. Her heroes suffer badly, strive for happiness, but will they have enough moral powers to assert their feelings?

“Othello” is one of the best-known and most popular plays by William Shakespeare (1564—1616) which belongs to four great tragedies being considered the top of the playwright’s works. The conflict between sincerity and hypocrisy, devotion and careerism, trustfulness and treachery, nobility and meanness incarnate in the images of Shakespeare’s characters exceed the bounds of a purely domestic story about love, jealousy, and revenge, rising to the highest tragic motif of a noble personality’s clash with the world which is insensible and even hostile to the highest human values.
“Отелло” — одна з найвідоміших і найпопулярніших п’єс Вільяма Шекспіра (1564—1616), що належить до чотирьох великих трагедій, які стали вершиною творчості драматурга. Конфлікт між щирістю і лицемірством, відданістю і кар’єризмом, довірливістю і підступністю, шляхетністю і жадібністю, втіленими в образах шекспірівських персонажів, виходить за межі суто побутової історії про кохання, ревнощі та помсту, піднімаючись до вищого трагічного мотиву зіткнення шляхетної особистості зі світом, байдужим і навіть ворожим до вищих людських цінностей.

With a rare mix of honesty, humor, and compassion, comedian and movie star Russell Brand mines his own wild story and shares the advice and wisdom he has gained through his 14 years of recovery. Brand speaks to those suffering along the full spectrum of addiction - from drugs, alcohol, caffeine, and sugar addictions to addictions to work, stress, bad relationships, digital media, and fame. Brand understands that addiction can take many shapes and sizes and how the process of staying clean, sane, and unhooked is a daily activity. He believes that the question is not "why are you addicted?" but "what pain is your addiction masking? Why are you running - into the wrong job, the wrong life, the wrong person's arms?"
Russell has been in all the 12-step fellowships going, he's started his own men's group, he's a therapy regular and a practiced yogi - and while he's worked on this material as part of his comedy and previous best sellers, he's never before shared the tools that really took him out of it, that keep him clean and clear. Here he provides not only a recovery plan but an attempt to make sense of the ailing world.

Керрі Бредшоу, головна героїня серіалу «Секс у великому місті», подарувала Сарі Джессіці Паркер всесвітню популярність і неймовірну долю, принаймні судячи з передумов. Давним-давно, до Керрі, була Сара: розумна та жвава дівчинка, яка народилася в Огайо в дуже бідній родині, але переконана у важливості мистецтва в житті кожної людини. Незважаючи на те, що дитинство нагадувало роман Діккенса, Сара, жертвуючи чимало, розвивала своє мистецьке покликання й почала грати в театрі, а потім і в кіно в дуже ранньому віці. До її посвячення в ту роль, яка зробила її відомою в усьому світі, в одному з телесеріалів, які змінили обличчя телебачення і для якого її ролі, не тільки як головної героїні, але й як виконавчого продюсера, були фундаментальними. Після успішного періоду серіалу Сара Джессіка Паркер разом із кар’єрою актриси здійснює різноманітні особисті проекти в гуманітарній, культурній та підприємницькій сферах із врівноваженістю та спокоєм, які її відрізняють. У сьогоднішній Сарі є багато від маленької дівчинки з Нельсонвілля: розумна, прагматична жінка з великим серцем.
Carrie Bradshaw, protagonista della serie TV "Sex and the City", ha regalato a Sarah Jessica Parker una notorietà planetaria e un destino non immaginabile, stando almeno alle premesse. C’era una volta, prima di Carrie, Sarah: una bambina intelligente e vivace, nata in Ohio, da una famiglia poverissima, ma convinta dell’importanza dell’arte nella vita di ogni persona. Nonostante un’infanzia da romanzo di Dickens, Sarah ha coltivato, con immensi sacrifici, la propria vocazione artistica e cominciato prestissimo a recitare in teatro e poi al cinema. Fino alla consacrazione in quel ruolo che l’ha resa notissima in tutto il mondo, in una delle serie TV che hanno cambiato il volto della televisione e per cui i suoi ruoli, non solo di protagonista ma anche di produttore esecutivo, sono stati fondamentali. Dopo la fortunata parentesi del serial, Sarah Jessica Parker, insieme alla carriera di attrice, porta avanti diversi progetti personali in ambito umanitario, culturale e imprenditoriale con l’equilibrio e la pacatezza che la contraddistinguono. C’è molto della bambina di Nelsonville nella Sarah di oggi: una donna intelligente, pragmatica e di grande cuore.

Joseph Conrad (1857—1924) is one of the most famous English prose-writers who was born not far from the Ukrainian town Berdychiv and walked his way up from an ordinary sailor to captain ship. That is why it was no mere chance that the main heroes of his tales “The Shadow-Line” and “Typhoon” were exactly captains. The author purposefully places them into the extreme conditions trying to investigate the depths of human psychology in the light of universal values. The main questions which the writer is interested in are as follows: will an ordinary man remain the same one under the unfavorable circumstances, is he able to tower over his own needs and instincts?
