Synopsis
The short stories are about English persons, who are members of the ancient nobility, about the true love, inheritance and other interesting occurrences. Die Kurzgeschichten berühmter Autoren erzählen von einer englischen Adelsfamilie, in der ein Kleptomane Verwirrung stiftet, von der wahren Liebe, die (in dieser Geschichte) nicht einmal als Illusion Bestand hat, vom richtigen Umgang mit Erbschaften und vielen weiteren Begebenheiten. Die GoyaLiT-Reihe "The Sound of the Language" präsentiert die beliebtesten Themen der englischsprachigen Literatur im Original. Englische Schauspieler interpretieren die ungekürzten Texte. Die Sammlung literarischer Perlen ermöglicht lebendiges Fremdsprachenlernen durch Hören. Eine Vokabelliste im Booklet erleichtert das Verständnis. Inhalt: O. Henry: One Thousand Dollars - Saki: The Seven Cream Jugs - William S. Gilbert: Angela. An Inverted Love Story - Herman Melville: The Fiddler - Katherine Mansfield: The Sister of Baroness
