This book is about the highest points of experience, the "climaxes", when you almost instantly realize yourself, society, human nature, revealed on the edges, on the breaks. Mikhail Epshtein and Sergey Yurienen, friends since their youth, reflect on the turning points of their lives and share their experience of the strongest experiences. The book includes about ninety short stories on topics ranging from love and romance and family to social, religious and creative themes. The culminations, which the authors write about, arise from the intersection of personal stories with the events of great history and universal spiritual problems, which suddenly receive a concrete embodiment in the extreme situations they have experienced. The storytellers hope that this uniquely poignant book will help readers better understand the culminating moments of their own lives. Mikhail Epshtein is a philosopher, cultural and literary critic, linguist, and essayist. He is the author of the books "The Irony of the Ideal" and "Projective Dictionary of Humanities", published by UFO Publishing House. Sergey Yurienen is a novelist, translator, journalist, publisher, and author of publications in the New Literary Review magazine.
