Roman Senchin is the author of the novels "Eltyshevs", "Rain in Paris", "Information", "Minus", short prose collections "Breakdown", "On the Black Staircase", "Absolute Solo". Winner of the "Big Book" and "Yasnaya Polyana" awards, finalist of the "Russian Booker" and "National Bestseller". The novel "Flood Zone" enters into dialog with Valentin Rasputin's famous story "Farewell to Matera": the inhabitants of ancient Siberian villages are hastily relocated to the city - in this place will be Boguchanskaya hydroelectric power plant. People "zone" - among them and hereditary peasants, and exiled in Stalin's time, who found here a small homeland - do not believe, protest, resign, rebel. Two worlds: the Atlantis of people's life going under water and the soulless machine of the new bureaucracy... The clash of worlds takes place in Senchin's story "The Strip". Alexei Shulin - former airport manager, and now and cashier, and dispatcher, and watchman - takes care of the runway of the village of Provisional. He fights the protests of the locals as best he can. It seems that he does it just "for the sake of order", not hoping that it will ever come in handy. Until the Tu-154 plane makes an emergency landing...
