Alexei Varlamov is a novelist, philologist, and author of several biographies of writers, as well as novels, including The Myshlennyi Volk. Winner of the Alexander Solzhenitsyn Prize, the Big Book and Student Booker awards. 1980. Instead of the promised communism in the USSR - the Olympics, and no one believes in anything. Neither already - in the Soviet power, nor yet - in its collapse. The protagonist of the novel "My Soul Pavel" is an exception. He believes. Naive and dreamy, an ideological Komsomol member, Pasha Nepomiluev comes to Moscow from a closed secret town, where idyllic descriptions of life from Soviet newspapers - reality. He miraculously enters the university, but instead of lectures he finds himself "on a potato", where intellectuals-students open his eyes to much of the life of a large country, which he loves, but almost does not know. A novel of education, a novel of growing up, about the first encounter with real life, about the courage to question his beliefs and defend them to others.
