The book "Monk in Quarantine" presents the diary of a person suffering from a coronavirus infection and forced to spend 40 days in complete isolation. The author is a hieromonk of the Russian Orthodox Church, serving in a populous parish in the very center of Moscow, an Italian by birth and a secular education - a literary critic and historian. The book is his verbal portrait. It includes a variety of texts about faith, suffering and the meaning of being, about Orthodoxy in the modern world and the Church in post-Soviet Russia, about historical disputes between Catholics and Orthodox, and collisions between Russia and the West. At the same time, the author talks a lot about Italian and Russian literature, cinema, art, world history and culture. The angle, the angle of observation is very important in the book: thanks to the uniqueness of the life path of the Italian Orthodox hieromonk and his erudition, the reader has an extraordinary opportunity to look at Orthodoxy and Russia at the same time from the outside and from the inside.
