Anna Matveeva - author of the novels "Dyatlov Pass, or the Mystery of the Nine", "The Enviable Feeling of Vera Stenina", short story collections "Wait, I'll die - and I'll come", "Nine Nineties", "Lolotte and Other Parisian Stories". Finalist of the awards "Big Book", "National Bestseller".
The book "CITIZENS" - is nine novellas, eighteen heroes. One unusual city through the eyes of Anna Matveeva: face to face. Here lives the world famous playwright Nikolai Kolyada, the great sculptor Ernst Neizvestny was born, the disgraced Marshal Zhukov and the famous Ural fairy tale writer Bazhov once met and became friends. Vladimir Shakhrin - not yet the leader of the legendary band "Chaif" - changes records at the flea market, Evgeny Roizman - the future mayor - reads the classics in a prison cell; on the streets, old man Bukashkin - the unforgettable face of the city - makes an impression on the public. The Ipatiev House - the place where the imperial family was executed - still stands unbroken, and the future mayor of the city, Boris Yeltsin, is still only a student. Anna Matveeva's new book is about all of them - people, houses, stories of the city E. Pair portraits of bright personalities connect distant centuries and rhyme with destinies.
