The book offers Francis Scott Fitzgerald's story “A Diamond as Big as the Ritz Hotel,” adapted (without simplifying the original text) according to the method of Ilya Frank. The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that memorization of words and expressions occurs due to their repetition, without memorization and the need to use a dictionary. The manual promotes effective language acquisition and can serve as an addition to the curriculum. Intended for students, for those studying English on their own, as well as for everyone interested in English culture.

A fantastic thriller from a classic of American literature of the 20th century.
