The 154 sonnets - all but two of which are addressed to a beautiful young man, ''Mr W.H.'', or a treacherous ''dark lady'' - contain some of the most exquisite and haunting poetry ever written, and deal with eternal subjects such as love and infidelity, memory and mortality, and the destruction wreaked by Time. Also included is A Lover''s Complaint, originally published with the sonnets, in which a young woman is overheard lamenting her betrayal by a heartless seducer.In his illuminating introduction, John Kerrigan examines how the sonnets are intertwined, the ways in which these works ...

Audiokniha: Dramatizace klasického díla světové literatury. Silný příběh nešťastné lásky, pomsty a bolesti.Do věčnosti zkamenělá návrší, zrádné slatiny a rozsáhlá vřesoviště, stejně jako dva sobě nepodobné domy se v polovině 19. století staly kulisami slavného románu Emily Brontëové Na Větrné hůrce.Do věčnosti zkamenělá návrší, zrádné slatiny a rozsáhlá vřesoviště, stejně jako dva sobě nepodobné domy se v polovině 19. století staly kulisami slavného románu Emily Brontëové Na Větrné hůrce.Tragický příběh nenaplněné lásky a pomsty posluchače přenese do kopcovité oblasti v anglickém západním Yorkshiru. Právě tam totiž Emily Brontëovou uchvacovaly ony bouřlivé výšiny, jak zní také jeden z překladů anglického názvu románu. Krajina nedaleko Bradfordu svou svíravostí naznačuje, kudy se musejí odebírat životy dvou zpočátku nevinných dětí, které si chvíli na lásku snad jen hrají, aby jejím poryvům nakonec podlehly. Počasí na Větrné hůrce a nedaleké usedlosti Drozdově jako by určovalo záhubu, které podléhá nalezenec Heathcliff, zpupná Kateřina i její přítel a pozdější manžel Edgar Linton. Jiskra křivdy nakonec přeskočí i na potomky těchto zatracených.Režie Tomáš Soldán
