For those familiar with Olga Lazoreva’s work from the series "City of Sin," this collection will be a discovery. Because the author will present herself to the reader in a completely different light—not as an expert in the sensual world, but as a subtle researcher of the human soul. The characters in her novellas and stories are like us. And the situations they end up in are recognizable. Yet the author notices such nuances in the characters’ experiences that we suddenly discover unexpected angles in our understanding of feelings. Full of lyrical philosophical reflections on love, loyalty, and happiness—this will not leave anyone indifferent.
