The protagonist of the novel-chronicle “Diary of a Provincial in St. Petersburg”, an unnamed nobleman decides to escape from the shameful province. Once in St. Petersburg, he instantly plunges into the whirlpool of metropolitan life with all its features: an endless and aimless run through ministries, departments, theaters and the publication of regular magazines in which incompetent idlers are engaged in “pencosmancy” – pretending to look for answers to the main questions of life.
The satirical “Diary of a Provincial in St. Petersburg” first of all exposed the mores reigning in St. Petersburg society of the seventies of the XIX century, but some features and features that Saltykov-Shchedrin noticed did not lose their relevance and a century and a half later.
