    About the book: 2012 / "My love, all my life, it turns out, first I flew to you, then I landed and ran to you, then I got tired and walked towards you, then I became exhausted and crawled towards you, and now, with my last breath, I reach out to you with my fingertips. But where can I get the strength to overcome this last quarter of an inch? This never-sent letter, written by the heroine Marina Paley, is probably the strongest declaration of love to date. The story “Cabiria from the Obvodny Canal” was first published in the magazine “New World” in 1991 and immediately made its author famous . Soon this story was translated into eight European languages, and the Italian translation of “Cabiria di Pietroburgo” was published with a dedication to Federico Fellini and Giulietta Masina, which had a huge influence on the author. In addition to “Cabiria”, this collection includes other love stories and stories full of thirst life, daring eroticism and the unyielding courage of the human heart in its quest to break through the walls of solitary confinement.
