Sergei Shargunov (b. 1980) is a writer, editor-in-chief of Yunost magazine, author of prose and biographies, and winner of the Bolshaya Kniga (Big Book) award. "Popovich" is a new, long-awaited novel.

Luka Artobolevsky, the priest's son, is in eleventh grade, preparing to enter the Faculty of Philology, reading Sartre, falling in love with a classmate, and feeling the inexorable weight of adulthood. Strict family rules, adherence to all fasts and canons, conflict with his desires. He tries to understand what he believes in and why, and whether those who mentor him are truly sinless.

Meanwhile, a strange monk appears in the church, teaching the boy dubious things and urging him to escape home—to find real life. A coming-of-age novel turns into an adventure novel, a book about faith and unbelief into a captivating odyssey.

Will he ever return home? If yes, when and how?
