"Tatar Desert" - a masterpiece of parable prose, which had a significant influence on subsequent modernist literature - a kind of hagiography of a young officer who has spent his entire life on a remote outpost on the edge of the desert, waiting for the attack of mysterious barbarian hordes, according to vague rumors living on the other side of it. A story of a life squandered waiting for action, hoping and fearing that "something will happen".
Quirky and graceful "The Enigma of the Old Forest", with its light and sad tone, at first glance belongs to the genre of literary fairy tales for adults, but behind the unpretentious in terms of plot imitation of folk legend hides a profound parable about the destructiveness of the confrontation between man and nature.
