The Eloquent Devil. Vanya + Dasha = Love

The “Ardis” audio studio presents two “adult” stories by Kir Bulychev.

Can an ordinary person stand up to Evil? Or even to the Devil himself? Especially when you’re past forty and everyone calls you “Sashkom.” When you have no friends—only acquaintances ready to take your turn in the wine department. Where do you find the strength for an action that will change your life? What do you have to do? (“The Devil Who Talks in Riddles”).

Six months ago there were 18 clone-twins. Now only 11 are alive, and with each day there are fewer of them. Each of them must perform a sacrificial feat—their body, their internal organs will save the lives of well-known people. But even among the clones self-awareness awakens, and they begin to distinguish truth from lies. (“Vanya + Dasha = Love”).
