“Roadside Picnic” is the world of stalkers, “empties,” and the gnat-plain (“комариная плешь”), “witch’s jelly,” and the Golden Ball—one of the most mysterious and fascinating worlds in the entire history of Russian science fiction.

It is from this novel by the Strugatsky brothers that the lives of many books and series created in the genre of “post-apocalyptic” began.

It’s time to return to the Zone its true meaning.

Each of the story authors included in this collection added something of their own to the story of the Visit: vivid characters, gripping plot collisions, and new stories happening today, here and now, in the Novosibirsk Zone of the Visit.
