J.K. Rowling is the author of the books about Harry Potter played by Daniel Radcliffe in the
films. At university JK studied French and the
classics. Her first husband was Portuguese but
unfortunately the marriage was not a success.
After, she was very sad and cried a lot. She was
unemployed and poor.
J.K. prepared the first Harry Potter book in the
Nicolson's Café in Edinburgh. Then JK tried to
find a publisher. She offered her first book to
twelve publishers in England but they didn't like
it. Fortunately, a little girl called Alice enjoyed
reading the first chapter. She is the daughter of a
publisher and he agreed to publish the book.
Six more books followed and the films of
course. Now JK isn't sad or worried about
money. In fact, her life is more magic than Harry
Potter's!

Odessa is the Black Sea gateway to Ukraine. It is the country's largest commercial Black Sea port and a large industrial city.
Odessa is a crossroads of cultures, languages and trade. Pushkin lived here in exile during the 1820s, and also it was home to writer and film director Alexander Dovzhenko.
The site of Odessa was controlled from 1526 to 1789 by the Ottoman Turks. In the 18th century Russia took this region and constructed a new port at Odessa. It was named after the ancient Greek colony Odessos. By the 1880s it was the second biggest Russian port and an important industrial city. Odessa was a hotbed of the 1905 revolution.
