Citizens. Amazing stories from the lives of people in the city of E.
14.99 €
Anna Matveeva is the author of the novels "Every Hundred Years," "Dyatlov Pass, or the Secret of the Nine," and "The Enviable Feeling of Vera Stenina," as well as short story collections. She is a finalist for the "Big Book" and "National Bestseller" awards.
The book "Citizens" is nine stories, eighteen characters, and one extraordinary city, as seen face to face by Yekaterinburg native Anna Matveeva.
The great sculptor Ernst Neizvestny was born here, and the disgraced Marshal Zhukov and the renowned Ural storyteller Bazhov once met and became friends. Vladimir Shakhrin, not yet the leader of the legendary band Chaif, trades records at a flea market; Nikolai Kolyada opens his own drama theater; and old man Bukashkin, an unforgettable face of the city, shocks the public on the streets. The Ipatiev House, the site of the imperial family's execution, still stands intact, while the city's future ruler, Boris Yeltsin, is still only a student.
Anna Matveeva's book is about all of them—the people, houses, and stories of the city of Ye. Paired portraits of vibrant personalities bridge centuries and rhyme with their destinies.
