New Family Circumstances

This book is an attempt to capture life. Reading it is like flipping through a roll of photographs and sorting through frames one by one. A photographer clicks the camera shutter to freeze the moment. A writer opens a laptop, a notebook, grabs a napkin from the table—anything at all, as long as it conveys the mood, the emotion.

And when you read these sketches of ordinary life—of the mother of three children Katya, the owner of a beauty salon Karina and her husband Samvel, Masha herself and her loved ones and friends—your emotions will be all kinds: from unstoppable laughter to bright sadness. But the main thing is that you’ll forget your own problems and hassles, and you’ll be convinced that life is varied. And as long as we live, it goes on.
