Description
A novel-labyrinth about an approaching madness.
The hero of Alexei Slapovsky’s new novel “Strazhoporyadok” (The Order Guard), Erich Markov (an unusual name—given by his mother, a fan of Remarque), at the start of the pandemic became a happy man. A simple security guard at a shopping center who loves his modest work now feels like a guardian of order, an executor of an important mission to ensure public health and well-being. But, alas, order cannot be achieved by ordinary measures. Someone will have to be punished as an example. Maybe even killed. Not something he wanted—but it has to be done! Duty.
And so he goes on the hunt…
Alexei Slapovsky is a writer and playwright, a finalist of the “Russian Booker” and “Big Book” awards, author of novels “I’m not me,” “Day of Money,” “Phoenix Syndrome,” “Winner,” “They,” “Genius,” “Unknown,” “Under…” Each new book by Slapovsky is an experiment with genre, with himself, and with the reader.
