Дочки, матери, птицы и острова

Children and mothers. Mothers who themselves have barely crossed the threshold of childhood and do not yet know all the hardships of real life. Imagining a fairy tale and ignoring reality. Ignoring the pain their fathers bring them.

The fathers of their children, eternal irresponsible romantics, tumbleweeds, are here today, and there tomorrow. But in all this there was once love! With all these strangers she once worked miracles - beauty and understanding.

Where does first love go? What kind of monster can she turn into if she is not let go? The cult prose writer Galina Sherbakova answers these tough questions, like life itself, in her new book.

The fate of her heroes and heroines brings to mind the wonderful Soviet cinema - “Moscow Doesn’t Believe in Tears”, “Office Romance”, “Once More About Love”.

Plunge into the element of genuine feelings, find out what the strength of the spirit and the weakness of the flesh are. Accept the priceless lesson of compassion for woman - saint and sinner, eternal mother and eternal widow of the world.
