Лучший подарок для всех, кто обожает читать на английском языке!
В английскую книгу «Писатели» вошли самые интересные биографии с любопытными фактами и пикантными подробностями. Большое количество великолепных иллюстраций превращает эту книгу в прекрасный альбом, который можно смело преподнести в подарок. Фотография Вирджинии Вульф, моей любимой писательницы, как раз на обложке этой чудесной книги. В главах 2 и 3 собраны писатели 19 века – это всем известные имена. Мне же больше понравились главы 4, 5 и 6, где я нашла много новых современных авторов. Всегда приятно открыть для себя что-то новое, особенно новые имена в современной литературе 20-21 вв.
