A selection of various publications and other sources from the beginning of the previous century is commented in detail and allows us to present the Northern capital in an unexpected and unusual perspective, to learn about the life and customs of that time, to learn how the townspeople lived, to see the whole versatility of being a big city, where luxury coexisted with ugly poverty. What did Petersburgers think and dream about? What dreams, plans and hopes did you build? What secret fatal passions overwhelmed them? What idols were worshiped and who were unrestrainedly condemned, overthrown from their pedestals? What, finally, was the city at the time, which today it is customary to speak with aspiration? After reading the book, you will learn a lot of interesting things and will be able to draw striking parallels between the mores of that era and our time.
