Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone Гарри Поттер и Философский камень на английском языке — знаменитый фэнтезийный роман Джоан Роулинг. Впервые опубликован 26 июня 1997 года. Главный герой, Гарри Поттер, живет все детство в семье своего дяди, поскольку его родители пережили за мистических обстоятельств, когда Гарри был еще в колыбели. Но однажды в его жизни возникает ряд невероятных событий, которые увлекают нашего героя за собой в новый мир, полный магии и волшебства. 1. The Boy Who Lived Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you’d expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn’t hold with such nonsense. Mr Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings, which made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large moustache. Mrs Dursley was thin and blonde and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck, which came in very useful as she spent so much of her time craning over garden fences, spying on the neighbours. The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.
