"An Ordinary Story" - a novel belonging to the educational: according to this genre, he traces the formation of the hero's personality, moral and psychological. It is not the author's fault, of course, that his hero is formed not at all into that beautiful brave man, which is so desirable to see in the finale. Young and enthusiastic Alexander Aduev comes to St. Petersburg from the provinces, ready to conquer the whole world. Very soon all his ideals are trampled, and he himself repeats the fate of his practical and impassioned uncle Pyotr Aduyev. In Yuri Gershkovich's illustrations, the bright, full of color Alexander meets his dry, sharply outlined uncle - and becomes the same black-and-white official himself.
