Victoria Tokareva is a renowned writer and screenwriter, familiar to Russian audiences for her beloved childhood films: "The Literature Lesson," "Gentlemen of Fortune," "Mimino," "The Dog Walked on the Piano," and "You Are...." Short stories and novellas occupy a special place in Tokareva's work. They are warm and lively, with a gentle humor, written in Tokareva's inimitable, light, and distinctive style. They feature likable characters who sometimes remind us of ourselves. "Pushkin-like calm"—that's how one could describe Victoria Tokareva's prose, whose works offer comfort and help us accept life as it is, in all its fullness, complexity, and fragile beauty. ...If you try to become yourself—to speak your mind, to do what you think is right, to fear nothing and no one—you'll find it very difficult to last longer than a day. At first it may seem like a game, but then you will have to live by the truth in everything or admit defeat... This edition includes stories from the 1960s and 1970s from the author's first collections, as well as the novella "The Greek Rode."
