Books in my Life 
It‟s no doubt that books are an essential and necessary part of mankind‟s civilization. It gives us an 
opportunity to link up with authors who lived hundreds and thousands years ago. Through reading 
books we can understand their thoughts, feelings and emotions better. Book is the surest way to 
bring people together. I think it is faithful and undemanding friend: it can be put away and taken up 
at any moment. We must admit that we can‟t do without them.
As for me I became keen on literature early in life. Probably it happened so because we had a very 
good and widely read library at home. Since my childhood I was enchanted by Pushkin‟s tales and 
Krilov‟s fables. Gogol was one of the greatest authorities to me. Later on my heart was won by Fet 
and Blok. Pasternak‟s and Vysotsky‟s poetry filled my heart with expectation of joy and happiness. 
Luckily, our country is rich in such remarkable authors.
And as for the classical authors I study rather than read their books. For example after reading 
William Shakespeare‟s tragedy “Hamlet” I came to a conclusion that this rich work demands great 
erudition on the part of a reader. One must know the Middle English History and the peculiarities of 
relationships between people then. I‟m sure that Shakespeare was a highly educated person and it is 
hard for me to keep up with him. 
To tell the truth I give my preference to the science fiction. As far as my favourite book is 
concerned it is hard to choose a one. Lately I have read a wonderful book entitled “The Sands of 
Mars”. It was written by Ray Bradbury – famous American science-fiction writer. His stories have a 
special charm that lies in its interesting plot, exciting situations and at the same time conveys deep 
thoughts, keen observations and sharpness of characterization. This book tells us about the fantastic 
events, which took place on Mars. I think this book has got everything: actions, many interesting 
ideas to think over, witty characters and, surely, a great deal of dialogs, Ray Bradbury is a master 
of. With the help of vivid descriptions the author carries the reader into the wonderful world of his 
imagination. The story is so beautifully told that it is hard not to believe it. This book stirs my 
imagination and expends the boundaries of the familiar world. Normally I read a book once but this 
book I read again and again, discovering something new for me. No matter how many times you 
read it, as it always gives you the same feeling of freshness and exciting that you experienced on the 
first reading. 
Though Ray Bradbury has written many science-fiction books this one is definitely the best.
