A funny and scary fairy tale for adults.

“As if our old yard, where the coffin with Granny Vera stood. Only she is alive, as is her sister Lyudmila, Uncle Mikhail, Grandpa Alexey. Everyone is nervous, waiting for transport with sugar. Granny Vera shows that three fingers on her hand are swollen. Uncle's too: thumb, index, middle. And Lyudmila's and Grandpa Alexey's. An ancient truck, the eternal Soviet hearse, arrives, rattling - there are sacks in it. Suddenly a crowd of neighbors runs up - all swollen fingers! I ask: “Why?” The relatives cross themselves in response. I look at my right hand - swollen to the point of blackness, three fingers. I cross myself for the sake of decency with everyone, and Uncle has already hoisted a sack of sugar on his back, dragged it. “Yudol” is not a novel, but a requiem...” (Mikhail Elizarov)
