Karamora; A Story of the Extraordinary

Two stories from the cycle “Stories of 1922–1924” are presented to your attention, performed by Dmitry Bykov. The theme of “Karamora” is the absence of a boundary between conscience and dishonor. The main character is a provocateur known as Karamora, whose prototype was Azev—the head of the Socialist Revolutionary fighting organization, who prepared terrorist acts and at the same time reported about them to the police. The “Story about the Extraordinary,” which completes the cycle, still remains a stumbling block for critics and researchers.

The audiobook also includes a lecture—an engaging story by Dmitry Bykov about the book he has just read.
