Бессильные мира сего

This volume includes B. N. Strugatsky’s “solo” novel “The Powerless of This World,” published by him under the pseudonym S. Vititsky, a bright and intellectual work balancing on a fine line between philosophical fiction and literary parable .

The novel consists of three main storylines and has a large number of active characters, whose names and nicknames are deliberately mixed in plot directions. The author continues to explore the possibilities of influencing people's destinies and the surrounding reality.

The novel "The Powerless of This World" has been repeatedly compared by critics with the most iconic work of the late period of creativity of the Strugatsky brothers - "The Doomed City."
