I used to read much.
I studied at the University at Philological department.
There were a lot of subjects studying literature such as Russian and Belorussian literature, literature of Ukraine, Poland Baltic literature and others foreign literatures.
One my teacher of literature said that philologists were such people who all in all read nothing.
I'm partly agree with this words.
After graduation from University I prefer light reading.
For example, women's magazines, newspapers and shot stories.
But sometimes I read more serious literature.
I mean classical literature.
My favourite writes are A.Pushkin, F.
Dostoevsky and A. Chechov.
I like Pushkin for his amazing poetry.
As for Dostoevsky I admire his works comprisining deep psychologism and philosophy.
Dostoevsky is a master of psychological portrait.
He penetrates deeply into a person's soul.
Chehov is a versatile write.
He wrote both philosophy plays and lirical novels and shot stories.
As for me I like his shot stories a lot.
Chehov's shot stories contain humor and ridicule human's vices.
Chehov is a subtle psychologist and an expert of human nature.
But there is one more name in Russian literature that is very close to me.
That is name of M. Bulgakov.
I like Bulgakov for his work "Master and Margarita".
That is one of books that I really like.
"Master and Margarita"is the complete book.
In fact you have all in this book.
There are philosophy, history, psyhology, fantastic, mistery. love and social life.
The novel deals with the interplay of good and evil, innocence and guilt, courage and cowardice.
I advice to you read this book if you have never read before.
As for other literature I fond of detective stories.
There are two names that I like.
They are A.K.Doyle and A.
Christie are synonyms of hight-class detective story.
The works of these authors were translated into many languages and scores of films were made using them as the scripts.
I think that reading is an important part of our life.
It is pity that most of teenagers and young people read not much.
They lose a source of wisdom and a good teacher.
