The album includes popular stories from Alexander Tsypkin’s collections “Women of Unbending Age,” “A House of Goodbyes,” and “The Girl Who Always Laughed Last,” performed not only by the author himself, but also by well-known Russian actors. In addition, the album features a new story “Wrath and Mercy” and a monologue from a future performance called “Intuition.” The author’s stories are about today’s time and about relationships between people. Their appeal lies in the present-day setting, unexpected plot twists, brilliant humor, and also a lyrical sad note—even in stories that seem, at first glance, funny.
