About the book: 2016 / In the biography of any person, youth is the epicenter of a special psychological intensity. This is the period of personality formation, when a child’s contemplation begins to intuitively sense the mystery of the world and, approaching the mysteries of existence, is catastrophically rebuilt. The inevitability of this approach is dictated by the reciprocity of attraction: the mystery calls to the young man, and the young man seeks the secrets. The picture of such a psychological explosion is the central plot of the novel “The Dreamer.” The story “The Storm” is also about love, but a different, adult one, which comes to the main character as a result of an unexpected family drama that turns upside down not only his life, but also the life of the entire family, as well as the family of his only and beloved daughter. Thus, both works tell about the same storm of feelings, which in different years and in completely different ways picks up and carries into the unknown, which alone determines our fate.
