    About the book: 2012 / Seventeen-year-old Pasha Shahed lives in a non-poor quarter of the huge capital, and he spends the summer of 1973 mainly on the roof, in the company of his best friend Akhmet; the young men joke, discuss the books they have read, and make plans for the future. Pasha likes his neighbor, the beautiful Zari, and although she was promised as a wife to another in infancy, timid friendship little by little turns into desperate love. But one night Pasha provides a service to the Shah's secret police. The consequences of this involuntary act are monstrous, and it is no longer possible to live as before, looking at the world through rose-colored glasses - fate pushes the young man and his friends onto a deadly dangerous road... For the first time in Russian!
