Description
They say that the phrase “Anatoly Wasserman doesn’t know…” can’t refer to the truth. This extravagant Russian intellectual presents a story where a set of tasks and riddles—solved correctly—helps us understand our time. He collected all the “tasty,” engaging, and mysterious things from the past. The chapters of the audiobook are, in a way, charades on a wide variety of topics: architecture, famous people, world wars, painting, and even cooking. Wasserman writes about what shocked him, surprised him, left him at a loss, or simply amused him while studying history.
