The wild success that fell upon Ilya Ilf and Yevgeny Petrov after the publication of The Twelve Chairs (1928) prompted the co-authors to "resurrect" their hero, the resilient and charming swindler Ostap Bender, and set about writing The Golden Calf (1931). The dilogy, included in the golden fund of Russian literature of the 1920th century and withstood hundreds of reprints, is extremely rarely published accompanied by magnificent illustrations created by the Kukryniksy. This publication gives readers the opportunity to get acquainted with this work of Mikhail Kupriyanov, Porfiry Krylov and Nikolai Sokolov, better known by their sonorous collective pseudonym. Outstanding cartoonists, classics of book illustration managed not only to convey the atmosphere of the XNUMXs: their creative manner turned out to be incredibly consonant with the sparkling satire of Ilf and Petrov.
