Да си родител на малко дете не е лесна работа. Как да отговаряш на желанията му и да не изпълняваш капризите му? Какво да правиш, когато се буди нощем с писък? А когато отказва да се облече? А когато се тръшка по земята или ви хапе или бяга от вас на улицата? Когато сякаш нарочно прави всичко възможно да ви вгорчи живота? Как да запазите самообладание, как да овладявате гнева си и да научите и детето си да овладява своя? Как изобщо да се справяме с малките чудовища, които толкова обичаме? На тези въпроси и на много други отговарят Даниеле Граф и Катя Зайде с хумор и самоирония. Не дават рецепти, само ценни съвети и главно ... |

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 ... |

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 outrage the Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he ... |
