The collection of short stories by St. Petersburg writer Svetlana Volkova, “The Great Love of Olenka Dyakova,” includes six short stories set in St. Petersburg-Petrograd-Leningrad. Among the book’s heroes are a talented student who dared to perform an unusual operation; a young laundress who tries to remove a stain from her mistress’s favorite shawl using “gypsy methods”; a model from the Academy of Arts who dared to pass himself off as someone else; a schoolgirl in love, entangled in her own lies; a music publisher trying to understand new art. And of course, the City itself, the full-fledged and main character of each story, spins, shamanizes, drives all the characters through itself, like blood through veins, and grows into them.
