Речь без повода... или Колонки редактора

The book by Sergei Dovlatov is an event for connoisseurs of the work of one of the most beloved and popular writers in Russia, an event in the world of literature and journalism. For the first time, works are published that are unknown to our readers, created during the period that Dovlatov himself called “the best days of my life.”

"This book is multi-dimensional, multi-dimensional, multi-vector, like life itself. But "art is in the gap that remains between reality and literature. This is almost the truth, but better than the truth - not because it is deeper, subtler, higher (here no literature can compete with life), but because it is more beautiful."
