Dear jury! Dear presents!
The topic of my bachelor thesis covers one of the vital issues of literary criticism as a subject and the very literary historical process as a whole — it deals with the issue of a literary dialogue.

Thriller is a genre of literature, film, and television programming that usessuspense, tension, and excitement as its main elements.Thrillers heavily stimulate the viewer's moods, giving them a high level of anticipation, ultra-heightened expectation, uncertainty, surprise, anxiety and terror.
