«Степной волк» - Герман Гессе
«Степной волк» — это и философская притча, и вместе с тем глубокое исследование психологии человека, тщетно пытающегося найти и обрести собственное "Я". Это история любви, которая ведет к неожиданной трагической развязке, это и политический, социальный роман, в котором герой выступает как яростный критик существующего мещанства.

«На дне» - Максим Горький
Максим Горький (1868—1936) — одна из ключевых фигур литературного рубежа XIX—XX столетий, писатель, публицист и общественный деятель. Пьеса «На дне», несомненно, одна из вершин горьковского творчества. Основная тема пьесы «На дне» — правда и ложь. В пьесе противопоставлены старец Лука со своими тихими и вечными истинами и громогласный резонер Сатин, который, согласно марксистской критике, олицетворяет собой пробуждение пролетарского сознания.
