"The navy has always had one foot on the water and the other on humor," wrote Viktor Viktorovich Konetsky, a professional sailor and one of the most published and beloved Russian authors of the 20th century. Konetsky's stories and novellas are somehow connected to the sea or the people who dedicated their lives to it, based on personal observations and often autobiographical. Engagingly describing the daily routine of a polar voyage, creating apt and expressive portraits of his characters, and paying tribute to the northern environment, the author touches on such complex themes as the contradictions of human nature and the ability to maintain composure in difficult situations—whether encounters with the elements or the need to make difficult moral choices in relationships.
