A collection of small masterpieces of classic “women’s prose,” once again exploring the eternal problems of our lives. Here “To be or not to be?” turns into “To love or not to love?”—and from that arises yet another question: “What to do?!” What to do with love—out of place, improper, and ridiculous in today’s universal rationality? What to do with the ancient, enduring desire for ordinary happiness that every woman dreams of? Victoria Tokareva doesn’t offer answers. But maybe you will find your own personal answer in her stories?..
