The documentary novel by Vyacheslav Khotulev, the famous Russian documentary film director and writer, goes far beyond your typical memoir literature. It is written easily, elegantly, with a great deal of self-irony. And at the same time, the book is not without serious, deep reflections on the fate of Russia, its difficult and dramatic history. The world of Russian cinema is shown from the most diverse angles, including the not-so-glamorous sides. Many of the characters in this documentary novel are known far beyond Russia. Judge for yourself: writers, Nobel laureates Henry Böll and Alexander Solzhenitsyn; the first president of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev; the grandson of the great Russian writer FM Dostoevsky - Andrei Fedorovich; Marina Tsvetaeva's sister - Anastasia, the world-famous poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko; the great ballerina Maya Plisetskaya; Moscow Patriarch Alexy II. This is only a short list of those with whom the author met during his career as a documentary filmmaker. It seems that this book will cause interest not only among those who are not indifferent to the culture and social life of modern Russia. The modern Western readers will find that this novel "touch" on a number of events and facts that will allow them to look at Russia with a renewed interest.
