Maxim Semelyak seemed to be the music critic of Afisha, the founding father of The Prime Russian Magazine, the editor-in-chief of Men’s Health – and was not an autofiction evangelist. Nevertheless, the hero of his first novel is reliable: send any commission - the narrator: one in one author of the sample of 2008. A misanthropic narcissist, he digs up a grave on Vagankovsky and, surrounded by an entourage of eccentric creatures, pretends to be Zoshchenko's grandson, studies martial arts, practices peaceful barbarism, trades last year's snow, dives into everyday phenomenology, flounders between humorous and elegy and swims in philosophy.

Semelyakov’s “Vodeville” is no novel, but a huge poem in prose, allowing you to feel the existential vacuum of an entire generation that refused to deal with modernity. In life, this infantilism did not end well, but a hundred thousand best words in the best order are quite acceptable compensation for awareness: like in May 2008, it will never happen again.
