The works of Vasily Aksyonov, one of the cult Russian writers, are well known not only in Russia, but also abroad. For more than a dozen years, he remained the voice of his generation, responding with brilliant prose to the most complex and topical topics. The famous novel The Island of Crimea was written in 1977-1979, even before the author left the USSR, but was first published in the USA in 1981. Russian readers were able to get to know him only in 1990, and even then they were amazed by both the bold plot move (what if the Crimea was a full-fledged island and what if during the Civil War it went to the whites?), And Aksyonov's extraordinary gift of foresight. This is one of those truly classic works that not only do not become obsolete over time, but acquire new and new meanings. This edition also includes the experimental travel story "In Search of a Genre" (1972) and the story "Our Golden Iron" (1973). Saturated with precise details, ironic, combining the ordinary and the sublime, the confessional and the playful, Aksenov's prose gives readers an everlasting sense of freedom and the fullness of being.
