Description
In the prose of St. Petersburg writer Valery Popov, incredible events always take place. No matter what he describes—even the most, at first glance, ordinary, “earthly” things—turn into some kind of phantasmagoria. No wonder the author loves to repeat: “The brilliance of literature is grotesque.”
In the spirit of allegorical absurdity, the story “The Horror of Victory” is built. The main character, writer Valeriy Po, undergoes baptism (more out of curiosity)—and then begins to work wonders, improving our sinful world. It’s not hard to guess what comes of it… “Victory” turns into “horror,” and through laughter there breaks through genuine sadness about parting with age-old Russian illusions—one of which is faith in a writer’s mission.
