In fact, the entire work of Mikhail Ancharov, writer, poet, and performer of his own songs, is dedicated precisely to creativity. Creativity as a phenomenon. Creativity as an art. According to Ancharov, any person, be they with only three years of education or even completely illiterate, be they designing nuclear submarines or selling brooms at the market, harbors a creative seed within them. Another matter is whether a person will allow this seed to germinate and nurture the revived sprout until the tree bears fruit.

Ancharov's restless heroes: the romantic engineer Sapozhnikov, inventor of a perpetual motion machine, and much more; Viktor Gromoboev, who can control the weather and calls himself Pan, the god of natural inspiration and guide on the hiking trail; Peter the Great, Alekseyevich Zotov, who established the connection between the most important categories of existence ("Without understanding what art is, one cannot understand what is Good and what is Evil")—all of them, and not only them, the heroes of Mikhail Ancharov's novels, stories, and short stories that comprise this volume, demonstrate through living example that creativity is not simply the work of the hands with a brush, pencil, chisel, or fingers tapping on the keys of a typewriter or piano. It is, above all, the mysterious work of the soul and heart, no matter how pretentious and outdated this may sound to some today.

Some of the works in this collection are being published in book form for the first time.
