Про падение пропадом

"..Dmitry Bakin is not so well known to Russian readers. Although in the West, where his stories are happily translated and published, Bakin has long been called the “modern Nabokov” or the “Russian Faulkner.” For his rare ability to handle language and immerse the reader into the subtle experiences of the heroes, for the hypnotic magic of his prose.

Dmitry Bakin spent twenty-five years behind the wheel of a truck, observing, absorbing the life around him, conveying with incredible accuracy and beauty the subtlest movements of the soul of his heroes.In his last book "About Falling into Lost" includes all his works - from short stories and novellas to chapters from an unfinished novel. The book was published in Germany in Russian, and, fortunately, now everyone has the opportunity to read it at least in electronic form to appreciate how an original and talented writer was next to us. Unfortunately, the life of Dmitry Bakin was cut short too early, at only 51 years old. Therefore, the Bunin Literary Prize was awarded to him posthumously. The board of trustees of the prize, chaired by the rector of the Moscow Humanitarian University Igor Ilyinsky, restored justice, and now one one of the most mysterious and interesting prose writers in Russia, we hope, will find readers who have not yet plunged into his lines."
