Румяная книжка

Reprinted from the 1930 Belgrade edition.

There are 14 stories in the book: Prisoner of the Caucasus; Incredible story; Apples; Goblin on the tree; The most terrible; Nanny Pushkin; Lomonosov the lad; Lucy and grandfather Krylov; Yellow van; Happy carp; Easter visit; Breton Neptune; Fifa brawler; Nervous elephants.

This publication presents the prose of Sasha Cherny, a poet-humorist who once made all of Russia laugh, the poetic leader of the famous Satyricon, and one of the greatest children's writers of the 20th century.

“In emigration, topical and even more so political satire ceases to be relevant for Sasha Cherny. But it was during this period that his prose flourished - the prose of a poet who brings up a philosopher in a child, and helps an adult see the beauty of the world. (B. Averin).
