This book is for those who, following Andrei Platonov, are ready to exclaim, "Long live Pushkin, our comrade!" Those who are willing to live a little in the 19th century and look at some of the events and people of that time in a new light. The book's hero, Faddey Bulgarin, was one of the most celebrated Russian writers of the first half of the 19th century. He was the author of the first Russian literary bestseller, one of the first Russian science fiction writers, and the publisher of the most widely circulated newspaper of the time. And... a slandered, vilified man. How did it happen that his novel—the most famous of its time—was out of print for almost 200 years, and his journalism lessons forgotten forever?

Andrei Maksimov, a member of the Russian Television Academy and a renowned writer—the author of over seventy books in various genres, including three biographies of great educators in the "ZhZL" series—searches for answers to these and many other questions. The book about Thaddeus Bulgarin is unusual: it is a biography, an investigation, and even, to some extent, a confession.
