"Beautiful language. A piercing clarity of being. Continuity of lineage and memory - all that the real Reader now longs for," - so said Dina Rubina about Elena Katishonok's first book "Once upon a time there was an old man and an old woman". Since then, the author has published three more novels, she has become a popular writer, winner of the Yasnaya Polyana award, as if marking the "Tolstoy glow" on her prose. And now, in full accordance with the Yasnaya Polyana tradition, Elena Katishonok presents the reader with a book of small prose - short stories, a novella and a "novel outline", as she herself labeled the genre of "Happy Felix", which literally takes your breath away. Yes, and other stories, perhaps, the author could have unfolded from the "outline" in more spacious canvases. She could have - but she didn't. Because she knows the value of a precise detail, a concise phrase, a masterfully constructed plot. The whole book has a single plot. The author sees it as follows: "from the shining endless day of a child to the inexorable adult autumn, when the sun is moving toward sunset, but the more fierce is the desire to live.
