The mythical bird Phoenix, burning, is reborn the same way.
The hero of Alexey Slapovsky’s new book, regularly losing his memory, becomes different every time and cannot understand who he is — the real one. It’s good if he’s rich and kind — but what if he’s poor and evil? And, God forbid, a thief or a bandit? Too many inclinations have been found in him — and they are all different. On one side, you look — a white wing. On the other — a damned hoof...
The hero suffers; the woman who shelters him, Tatiana, is worried; inquiring neighbors, both officially and personally (because of Tatiana), are also concerned — and even the police officer Kharchenko is troubled...
“The Phoenix Syndrome” — a truthful, funny, and at times slightly frightening fairytale of modern times about the theme: are we really the ones we think we are, and do we pass ourselves off for who we claim to be? Are we not fooling ourselves?
And what the hero of this particular story turned out to be — you’ll find out in the book.
