Sergei Dovlatov is one of the most popular Russian writers of the 20th century, whose books ("The Zone," "The Reserve," "Ours," "The Foreigner," "The Suitcase," and others) have been beloved by several generations of readers. Dovlatov created an original, inimitable style that combines a seemingly effortless narrative, conciseness, lyricism, and genuine philosophical depth. The precision and meaningfulness of each phrase lend his works an aphoristic quality; many quotes from his novellas and short stories are easily remembered, becoming catchphrases and memes. Inimitable humor, often based on paradox, and a combination of the comic and the tragic are qualities invariably characteristic of Sergei Dovlatov's prose. This edition contains quotes from his works and journalism.
