Description
The “MediaBook” studio presents a gem of Russian literature—audiobook of the famous, unmatched duo of writers Ilf and Petrov, “Twelve Chairs” (“12 Chairs”). The book has been filmed many times. The audiobook is read by the popular performer and voice actor Sergey Gorbunov.
“— You still don’t tell anyone that they saw me, — Hippolytus Matveyevich begged. — They might actually think I’m an emigrant.
— There! There! That’s congenial! First comes the asset: an emigrant who returned to his native city. Passive: he’s afraid they’ll take him to the GPU.
— But I’ve told you a thousand times that I’m not an emigrant.
— And who are you? Why did you come here?
— Well, I came from city N on business.
— On what business?
— Just… a personal matter.
— And after that you say you’re not an emigrant?.. One of my acquaintances came too…
At that, Hippolytus Matveyevich, worn down by the tales about Bender’s acquaintances, and seeing that he couldn’t be shaken from his position, surrendered.
“— All right,” he said. “I’ll explain everything to you.
“In the end, without help it’s hard,” Hippolytus Matveyevich thought, “and he’s a big-time swindler anyway. Someone like that could be useful.”
