About this listen
Россия. 2027 год. Коренной опричник Андрей Данилович Комяга просыпается у себя дома с тяжелейшим похмельем. Но головная боль не повод отлынивать от государевой службы и кое-как приведя себя в порядок Комяга на сверкающем красном мерине отправляется вершить важные и неотложные дела: жечь дома врагов государя, крышевать китайские товары и совершать прочие бесчинства, угодные власть имущим. Легендарный аудиоспектакль "День опричника" - редкий и почти утраченный в погоне за экономией вид творческой подачи книги, который столь дорог истинным ценителям жанра! Вас ждет великолепная игра лучших российских актеров и яркое музыкальное сопровождение этой без преувеличения самой настоящей театральной постановки. ! Запись содержит авторскую ненормативную лексику

"Июнь" — лучшее из написанного Быковым со времен "Пастернака" и определенно самый совершенный его художественный текст — самый продуманный и выстроенный, виртуозно сочетающий в себе сюжетность с поэтичностью, а легкость — с драматизмом и пугающей глубиной.

Первый вариант романа В круге первом был написан А.И. Солженицыным в 1955-1958 годы без какой-либо надежды на публикацию. В 1964 году Солженицын переделал роман, надеясь напечатать его легально. В новой редакции неприемлемые для цензуры места были изъяты или сглажены.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 444
When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born. Funny how things changed over time, how the fairytale twisted into something far more crooked—and darker—than I ever imagined. In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.
