2. Letter from an Unknown Woman by Stefan Zweig
Sensual, lyrical, heartbreaking, and gripping are the words with which to accurately characterize the Austrian Zweig’s short story.

4. Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote
It is necessary to read Capote’s book not only because the screen version is starring Audrey Hepburn. The English novel captivates with its naturalness and ease of writing, captivates by the lightheartedness and enthusiasm of the heroine, whose seeming carelessness hides worldly experience and life drama. The story is about the friendship of different people, about the events, to become part of which many ladies dream.

5. Elchin Safarli’s novel “They Promised You to Me”
We have always wondered: how can a man so accurately describe women’s experiences and feelings? Elchin Safarli became famous back in 2008. Each of his books is imbued with faith in life, hope for a better outcome, love for the world around him, friends, relatives, cities. “They Promised You to Me” is one of the author’s smaller works. The story of a tragedy that became the beginning of a new life, about the importance of filling the void in the soul and discovering inner beauty. A man’s view of the “black stripe”, which simply must be met.
