This collection of essays by novelist, translator and critic Alexey Polyarinov is like a heart-to-heart conversation with a good friend about cinema and literature. The author shares his most intimate ideas of unwritten books: he talks about a novel about the adventures of Cervantes' mother, about a fanfic on "The Wizard of Oz" and even gives an imaginary tour of a morgue near Moscow, while giving a lecture about dead people in Russian literature. In the second part of the book, readers will find the story of the "sworn friendship" of Jonathan Franzen and David Foster Wallace, an essay on one of the most terrible American historical novels - "Blood Meridian" by Cormac McCarthy, reflections on the emergence of the global novel and other texts about film and literature, written with an incredible love for the subject and an excellent sense of humor.
