The truth is plain and raw—like a fat aunt in a bath. She doesn’t suck in her stomach or hide behind tinted windows of some foreign car. And she doesn’t speak in glossy glam-nonsense; she talks in simple Russian.
In this book there’s nothing but a sensible way of understanding what’s happening all the time around us, while keeping a kind attitude toward yourself—whatever happens to us “painted sluts” in this stupid, cruel, and sometimes monstrously funny life.
