Description

The Leningrad school of science fiction gave the genre many glorious names. Boris Strugatsky, Georgy Martynov, Ilya Varshavsky, Vadim Shefner, Alexander Shalimov... But one of them truly stands apart—not because the owner of the name is a woman. Olga Larionova in the mid-sixties suddenly lit up on the science-fiction sky so brightly that she instantly gained a huge circle of admirers. We’re talking about “The Leopard from the Top of Kilimanjaro”—the novel that, according to internet experts, “is not just considered one of the best books by Larionova—it can confidently be put into the treasury of world science fiction.” It wasn’t published often, but almost every one of the writer’s works released during those scarce fantasy times (the sixties to the eighties) hit the target directly—that is, readers’ hearts.
