The adventures of Major Zvyagin are an unusual novel. In fact, Zvyagin isn’t quite a major. He’s retired. And he’s not quite a fighter. In fact, not a fighter at all.
And these aren’t exactly adventures. This is—learning how to win in life.
Zvyagin is the kind of hero everyone dreams of meeting in a hard hour. He will offer a reliable shoulder and resolve any situation. The killer is destroyed. Love becomes mutual. Bad luck is overcome. And even the eternal question about the meaning of life gets a clear answer.
There was a genre—“the novel of education.” This is a textbook of luck. Without magic, without advertising and hype. A person wants—so everything can happen. A loser can become a winner. A plain-looking girl can become beautiful. An unhappy lover can become loved.
The main thing is to want and believe in yourself—and also know what and how you should do. Here is Zvyagin—a mix of Robin Hood and an ancient sage: he always knows what to do and makes others do it—for their own happiness.
And the rules for “How to win a woman you love” were something Moscow students simply hung up in their dorm rooms.
In this wonderful book there are many secrets, and all of them are revealed—surprisingly—very simply.
