Аннотация: The name Edgar Allan Poe conjures up thoughts of hearts beating long after their owners are dead, of disease and plague amid wealth, and of love that extends beyond the grave. The richness of Poe's writing, however, includes much more than horror, loss, and death. Poe's stories teem with irony and black humor, in addition to plot twists and surprise endings. Living by their own rules and charged with passion, Poe's characters are instantly recognizable – even though we may be appalled by their actions, we understand their motivations. This collection contains eleven of Poe's best stories. They are «The Fall of the House of Usher», «The Pit and the Pendulum», «The Tell-Tale Heart», «The Cask of Amontillado», «The Premature Burial», «Ligeia», «The Black Cat», «The Oval Portrait», «Berenice», «The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar», and «The System of Dr. Tarr and Prof. Fether».

Аннотация: The procession that crosses Chaucer's pages is as full of life and as richly textured as a medieval tapestry. The Knight, the Miller, the Friar, the Squire, the Prioress, the Wife of Bath, and others who make up the cast of characters -- including Chaucer himself -- are real people, with human emotions and weaknesses. When it is remembered that Chaucer wrote in English at a time when Latin was the standard literary language across western Europe, the magnitude of his achievement is even more remarkable. But Chaucer's genius needs no historical introduction; it bursts forth from every page of The Canterbury Tales.

Аннотация: John Galsworthy (1867–1933) was an English novelist and playwright. «Love moves the world.» And this statement was reflected on the pages of the novel «Freeland». And no matter where the love storyset – in bright living room or in a solitary mansion – feelings and experiences of Galsworthy characters are equally deep and sincere.

Аннотация: O. Henry is the pen name of American writer William Sydney Porter. He wrote 381 short stories while living there. He wrote a story a week for over a year for the New York World Sunday Magazine. His wit, characterization and plot twists were adored by his readers, but often panned by the critics. The collected tales of bunco artists and fourflushers. Full of those delightful Archie Bunkeresque mis-speaks like the «casting of Persians». These characters are all charmingly stoic in their winsome and loose some attitudes.

Аннотация: William Makepeace Thackeray (1811–1863) was a British author and novelist mostly known for his satirical works such as «Vanity Fair» that showed an ironic representation of the British society of those times. «The History of Pendennis» is a novel set in nineteenth-century England, mostly in London. The book tells the story of a young gentleman Arthur Pendennis from a countryside, who travels to London to find his place in society. In line with other Thackeray’s works, the novel is a satiric picture of the English aristocratic society, which includes all sorts of snobbish and sometimes detestable characters.
