This collection contains the best examples of the work of the famous playwright and creator of the theater school Alexander Nikolayevich Ostrovsky: the story of a forced marriage of convenience in "Poor Bride", unhappy marriage and despair in "Thunderstorm" and the fruitless search for true love in our imperfect world in "Bespridannitsa".
Russian writers with their works have always proved that for the plot and characters do not need to go to other universes: you need in the place where you live, look closely and then accurately describe what you see. Then it will be read with pleasure and put on in theaters in any country and in any century. Which is what has been happening with Ostrovsky's plays for over 160 years. Because technologies, social order and way of life can change, but the man himself, answering to himself the eternal questions of existence, is quite inert. And the questions are called eternal because the answers to them will not be found soon. But it is worth a try.
