A collection of piercing stories about love.
“A flock of short stories, deliberately told in a simple, narrative way—like we usually share our stories with a fellow passenger at night in a train compartment. And I finally pulled my two stories out from the bottom of my soul—I won’t say which ones. It was a long time ago—when I lived breathlessly, rushing, speaking the most important words as if they were burning my lips… And when I wrote them, the flock of stories rose into the air and flew. They’re still hovering—high somewhere, behind my back. I don’t look back, I don’t reread them—I just feel the weightless flutter of distant wings.” Dina Rubina
