Weapons and Man

A deafening November night. The beautiful Reina is not asleep. Her fiancé is fighting in the ranks of the Bulgarian army not far away. Suddenly, a man in enemy uniform jumps into the room through the balcony. At that moment,... a loud knock comes at the door — it is the patrol chasing the fugitives..
This is the first truly successful comedy by B. Shaw, which brought him international fame, adapted in this edition using Ilya Frank's teaching reading method: provided with a literal translation into Russian and necessary lexico-grammatical commentary (without simplifying the original text). The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that memorization of words and expressions occurs through their repetition, without rote-learning and the need to use a dictionary. Moreover, the reader becomes accustomed to the logic of the English language and begins to 'feel' it.
For a broad audience studying the English language and interested in the culture of English-speaking countries.
