For a writer, publishing a book is a pleasure to share. After all, watching the most beautiful sunset or visiting the most interesting places in the world does not yet determine the meaning of life.
This book is about a person for whom the pleasure of sharing comes naturally.
I don't even know if I wanted to write this book or if the book wanted me to write it. While writing the novel, I thought several times that it was irrelevant, that maybe those thoughts should just remain in dust... But the future events I described kept repeating themselves exactly. Maybe I started to see the meaning. Because it's real. And real things are the most important in my world.
The hero of the book wanted to live a quiet life. However, fate sent him so many trials that the adventures and difficulties he experienced would be enough for even a few people who take everything from life

Moskoviada
Translated title: Moscow Festival
Author: Andrukhovych, Yuri
Genre: Thriller / Social Novel
Year: 2023 | Pages: 148 | Origin: LIT | BA Seq Num: 91598
The novel 'Moscow Festival' is the author's reconciliation with the capital of the collapsing Soviet empire, where he had to live while studying at the M. Gorky Literary Institute.
It is a drunken wandering around Moscow by the author's alter ego, and at the same time a character from a true villain novel, whose drinking dens and sewers, the pitiful existence of the young intellectuals of the empire, illuminated by intoxicants and megalomaniac delusions, reveal an increasingly alien and repulsive face of the decaying megalopolis.
The playful, ironic story, studded with fantastic images and cultural allusions, leads to a grotesque apocalyptic climax, in which - how unexpected! - the role of hellish evil is played by the KGB, which has used all the myths of the empire in the fight for survival
