About good, in essence, people! Stories (humorous). Averchenko A.

Arkady Timofeevich Averchenko is a wonderful Russian writer, playwright, theater critic, editor of the legendary St. Petersburg magazine Satyricon, which became the most important phenomenon in the culture of the Silver Age. Being a novice writer, Averchenko came to the capital from the south of Russia in the hope of trying his luck-and soon became one of the most famous and successful humorist writers. The magazine he created, according to Taffy, "liberated Russian humor... Russia began to laugh." The real edition included Averchenko’s works of different years - humorous stories, feuilletons, plays, the cycle “Dozen of knives in the back of the revolution”, as well as the novel “The Joke of the Palanse”. The plots presented by Averchenko, from household scenes to the whip of the political satire, are often grotesque, but from this they are no less true. Soft humor, cheerful perirable laughter and gall sarcasm - the entire comic palette is subject to Peru Averchenko. No wonder contemporaries called him “a knight of smile”, “king of laughter”, “Russian Mark Twain”.
