About the book: year / Boris Nosik’s new book includes stories written in different years - “Koktebel”, “Our old park”, “Here is my village” " and "Mountain". In them, the author, known to readers for his works on Akhmatova, Modigliani, Nabokov, Schweitzer and excellent translations of English-language writers, appears as a prose writer - subtle, intelligent, ironic and sad, with his own easily recognizable and unlike anyone else style. The stories “Koktebel” and “Here is my village” are not included in this electronic version of the book; they are available in the collection “The Long Road is Easy".
