Description
Sergey Litvinov—the representative of the star duo of Russian detective fiction—tells the real truth, which sometimes turns out to be brighter than any of the most entertaining fiction!
This time, Sergey Litvinov appears without an ensemble. By himself. Alone. He recounts real episodes from his life—often, as it happens, more interesting and more exciting than any, even the most intricate, invention. Fed by nostalgia and love, funny, lively, and instructive stories happen to the author in calm 1960s, drunken 1970s, full of hopes 1980s and 1990s—the years of dizzying changes.
