, in which the difficult destinies of people and events of different significance are intertwined, leaving an indelible mark on the life of each of them. Before the eyes of the old thief, who has retired from business, the past days, years spent in prisons and camps, friends and enemies. Here is a prisoner who has gone through all the circles of prison hell and settles scores with a sadistic warden. And a highly experienced prisoner, who spent half his life working in a distant Kolyma logging site, becomes a farmer in prosperous Canada. Another round of memory - and young Zaur Zolotoruchka makes fun of the machinations of the Baku hucksters. During long prison nights, you can lose everything at cards, but you can also win a lot... honor, freedom... and even life itself. Ruthless fate, violence, fear and despair haunt the prisoner, but an unbroken spirit and a free heart do not allow him to fall, keeping him on the edge, giving him a chance to remain human no matter the adversity. It would not be amiss to emphasize once again that, as in previously published books, all the characters in "Notes of a Pickpocket" are genuine, as well as the events that correspond to reality. Second edition.
