"The Catcher in Rye" is the ultimate novel for disaffected youth, but it's relevant to all ages. The story is told by Holden Caulfield, a seventeen-year-old dropout who has just been kicked out of his fourth school. Throughout, Holden dissects the "phony" aspects of society, and the "phonies" themselves: the headmaster whose affability depends on the wealth of the parents, his roommate who scores with girls using sickly-sweet affection. Lazy in style, full of slang and swear words, it's a novel whose interest and appeal comes from its observations rather than its plot intrigues (in ... |

Дж. М. Кутси - носител на нобелова награда за литература ... "Изглежда, че някъде дълбоко у всички нас има нещо твърдо като гранит, което не можеш да научиш на нищо. Въпреки истерията по улиците никой не вярва истински, че светът на установените факти, в който сме се родили, е обречен на унищожение. Никой не може да приеме, че армията на Империята е била избита от хора с лъкове и стрели и стари ръждясали пушки, от хора, които живеят в палатки, хора, които никога не се мият и не могат да пишат, нито да четат. А кой съм аз, че да отхвърлям така подигравателно илюзиите, подхранващи живота?" ... |

Long before science fiction, virtual realities, video games, and the Internet, the craft of magic was the most powerful fantasy world man had ever known. As the pioneers of special effects throughout history, magicians have never ceased to mystify us by making the impossible possible. This book celebrates more ... |
