Autumn in Pockets: A Novel in Stories

I keep making jokes, but the story is already dramatic".

Andrey Astvatsaturov

«An elegant play of intellect, powerful layers of metaphors, allusions, and hyperlinks disguised behind the apparent ease of everyday sketches and lyrical passages—if that’s what you like and can handle, then be sure to get Andrey Astvatsaturov’s book “Autumn in My Pockets” and read it» (Gherman Sadulaev).
