The new edition of the cult novel by Leonid Yuzefovich continues the series "Great Prose". "Cranes and dwarfs" - is not just a cleverly conceived, masterfully realized, witty and multilayered story about impostors. This is another appeal to picaresque, only the main idea unites the adventures of several knaves in different times and in different countries. The main events take place in the XVII century, in the alarming turning days of 1993 and in the late 2000 e.Telling about impostors, Leonid Yuzefovich explores the eternal theme of the place of man in the notorious "era of change". "Cranes and Dwarfs" - fascinating novel, in which the narrator - perhaps another knave in this story - sewed between the lines of questions much more serious. These include making sense of the turning points of history, the confusion of ordinary people, and the entrepreneurial spirit of those whose restless natures won't let them put up with what's going on. Adventurers are hardly the salt of the earth as those who put their soul into what they create with their hands or intellect. They are the pepper and other spices.
