The new novel by Dina Rubina will take the reader on a trip to Soviet Astrakhan, Poland and military Bukhara. “Boys” is an intriguing plot of the big adventure story of “Designer Zhorka”.
In the house of ten-year-old Itzik, 387 hours are counted by different voices. The boy’s grandfather began collecting the unique collection, and then his father continued – both skilled watchmakers. Fleeing from the Hitler invasion, the family is evacuated. A few years later, Itzik, now called Caesar, returns to his father’s home, but finds only ruins instead of a collection of watches. This loss will prompt him to get involved in what the newspapers will call "The Elegant Robbery."
Decades later, designer Jora will be on the scene. He is Georges, George, Jürgen, Schörs - depending on the country of residence. In the meantime, he's just a strange orphan boy, Jork. Fate will bring him and the elderly Caesar Adamovich, now working as a mechanic-laborator in the leprosarium. Their lives will be tied by the secret of one collection.
