In one unnamed country the Three Fatties rule: in their greedy hands all power, resources and people's lives. But right under their noses a real uprising is brewing: the armorer Prospero and the gymnast Tibulus are leading the people to storm the Palace of the Three Fatties. Meanwhile, the Palace is in trouble of its own: the heir's favorite doll, Tutti, has been spoiled by the rebellious guards! Only the wise and learned Dr. Gaspar Arnery can fix it. But fate leads the doctor to the circus dancer Suok, a girl who resembles the doll like two drops of water. And then a dangerous plan is born: Suok is to play the role of a puppet of the heir Tutti and free the captured armorer Prospero. Then the power of the Three Fat Men will be overthrown, and justice will be restored: good will triumph over evil, simple and real human feelings - callousness and hard-heartedness, freedom - captivity.The novel for children "Three Fat Men", created by Yuri Olesha in 1924, for his almost one hundred years of life has endured many reprints, screenings and theatrical productions, was translated into foreign languages. Serious social conflict in it neighbors with fairy-tale adventures, extraordinary transformations and fascinating plot twists, which invariably continue to capture the attention of readers. Boris Kalawshin's magnificent illustrations, included in this edition, not only echo the wit and imagery of the text, but together with it create this incredible story from beginning to end.
