Wolfe T., Of Time and the River — 1971 (Penguin modern classics)
Аннотация: The sequel to Thomas Wolfe's remarkable first novel, Look Homeward, Angel, Of Time and the River is one of the great classics of American literature. The book chronicles the maturing of Wolfe's autobiographical character, Eugene Gant, in his desperate search for fulfillment, making his way from small-town North Carolina to the wider world of Harvard University, New York City, and Europe. In a massive, ambitious, and boldly passionate novel, Wolfe examines the passing of time and the nature of the creative process, as Gant slowly but ecstatically embraces the urban life, recognizing it as a necessary ordeal for the birth of his creative genius as a writer. The work of an exceptionally expressive writer of fertile imagination and startling emotional intensity, Of Time and the River illuminates universal truths about art and life, city and country, past and present. It is a novel that is majestic and enduring.

American Satire. Satirical Short Stories and Essays — 1966
Аннотация: В настоящем сборнике собраны сатирические произведения американских писателей от Бенджамина Франклина до наших дней. Как известно,юмористическая и сатирическая струя всегда были сильны в американской литературе. Не говоря уже о профессиональных юмористах и сатириках,в США не найдется,пожалуй,ни одного крупного писателя,который бы в той или иной степени не отдал дань этому жанру.При размещении рассказов в книге соблюдалось два условия:представитель авторов в хронологическом порядке и в таком же порядке-рассказы,в тех случаях,когда известна дата их первого напечатания.Каждому автору посвящена небольшая справка, в которой сообщаются краткие сведения о нем и о его творчестве и указаны его основные произведения. Книга снабжена комментарием с объяснением отсутствующих в англо-русском словаре Мюллера реалий,некоторых имен и исторических дат,а также переводом особо трудных для понимания английских предложений.
