He sleeps, dreaming of foreign, unseen cities, self-propelled carriages, girls in shameful attire, blackened Arabs, and himself, big and strong. But the time comes to wake up, and reality rises before his eyes, the everyday peasant life of the late nineteenth century. Simple, measured... terrifying! A life where in the spring, infants who died of starvation are carried to a ravine, where bread is eaten with quinoa and pine bark, and where he is an orphan boy, unwanted by his own aunt. But inside him, there is someone mature and intelligent. Someone else. Himself... and ahead of him lies an apprenticeship with a hard-drinking shoemaker, escape, Khitrovka, Khodynka, and a personal feud with the tsar! There will be Odessa, with its unforgettable color, and Palestine, journalism and knife fights, shootouts and smuggling, scams and cards with "Ivans", and also - love... childish, unconditional, once and for all!
