Reading by Angela Wöllmer is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 I international License.  Based on a work at https://flic.kr/p/QPrSqr In the conditions of active urban life, few people manage to organize ideal conditions for reading, but I will still describe them here to determine what is worth striving for. Reading tips: 1. Get yourself a favourite place to read. You can choose different places for different texts: for example, professional literature can be read at the table, and fiction can be read in an armchair or on the sofa. 2. Relax and calm down: unnecessary gestures distract. Also, do not combine reading with eating and drinking. 3. The text should be well lit. It is advisable to use an additional light source for this. If you are right-handed, install the lamp on the left, if left-handed, then on the right. 4. Place the book at a distance of 35-40 cm from the eyes. It is best to keep it tilted so that all lines are equidistant. It is good to use a book st...

War and Peace   by   Yale   is licensed under a   Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License . Based on a work at   https://www.deviantart.com/yalex/art/War-and-Peace-59292967 .  I wanted to write a separate post about Leo Tolstoy's work war and peace because it is one of the greatest works of Russian literature. This novel is unique in the history of world literature, telling about the life of Russian society in the era of the war with Napoleon. The work has been a constant success among readers and literary researchers all over the world for many years. Throughout the work on the novel, Lev Nikolaevich was critical of the work done. In an effort to write a work worthy of attention, he created 15 different versions of the beginning of the novel. Before publication, the author renamed his work. The meaning of the title "War and Peace" is that the author, using the example of different characters and different social strata of society, showed the...

Watchmen   by   Ann Plzz   is licensed under a   Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License . Based on a work at   https://flic.kr/p/2mBTj4u . For a long time, I was cold to the comics themselves, although I really liked watching them being adapted on big screens in the form of films or cartoons. In 2009, director Zack Snyder released his film "Watchmen", which was based on a comic book of the same name. The film hooked me and I watched it more than once later. Once I was intrigued by a phrase, the essence of which was that the film, first of all, is good because of the original source, that is the comic book. I was fired up with the idea of reading a comic book, but apparently, I didn't catch fire so much, because I read my first comic book only this year. But I will not continue to call the "Watchmen" a comic book. I've seen comics on bookstalls and most of them are mediocre stories with equally mediocre illustrations. "Watchmen" is s...

 I have had a love for russian literature since childhood, since my father loves to read, my grandfather has a huge library. Russian literature is quite rich, and the love of reading is a certain trait of russian people. Many people abroad know who Tolstoy, Dostoevsky and Bulgakov are. For the first time in my blog, I will tell you about my favourite Russian writers and where to start if you want to get acquainted with russian literature. Mikhail Bulgakov "The Master and Margarita" One of the most mysterious and amazing novels of the XX century. The novel "The Master and Margarita" is the business card of Mikhail Bulgakov. For more than ten years, he worked on the book that became his destiny novel, a testament novel. In "The Master and Margarita" there is everything: cheerful mischief and aching sadness, romantic love and witchcraft obsession, magical mystery and reckless play with evil spirits. Mikhail Sholokhov "And Quiet Flows the Don" Mikhai...

 Where can I get a few more hours a day to have time to read everything I want? There is not enough time to get acquainted with all potentially interesting works. That's why, when I find out that any book worthy of my attention will soon be screened, I try to include it in the priority reading list. In this case, the impression will be received from a literary source, and not from the talent of cinematographers. I have compiled a list of 8 books for you, the film adaptation of which is expected in the near future so that you too can make the necessary adjustments to your reading plans in time.
