Marina Stepnova is the author of the novel The Women of Lazarus (shortlisted for the BIG BOOK, NATIONAL BESTSELLER, YASNAYA POLYANA, RUSSKY BOOKER awards), her stories are eagerly published by thick magazines, a brilliant stylist, and the editor-in-chief of a popular men's magazine.
In the novel "Surgeon" the story of the genius plastic surgeon Arkady Khripunov intertwined with the story of the life of Hassan ibn Sabbah - the prophet and founder of the state of Islamites-Nizarites XI century, the master of the impregnable fortress of Alamut. Khripunov changes human bodies, and therefore fates. Giving people new faces, he sees in front of him just material - cartilage and skin. Ibn Sabbah demands unquestioning obedience from his material and kills the unwanted with his own hand. Both feel themselves to be beings of a higher order, human passions do not touch them, the only thing that can strike God's chosen ones is earthly beauty.....
