Baghdad: War, Mir and Back in USSR. Shcherbakov B.

In this small book, which seems to be only a few years, there is a whole era. In 1986, Boris Shcherbakov went on a business trip from the USSR with his "modernist landscapes with empty shelves" - to Baghdad, where there was a war and where the winds of changes from the Union almost did not reach. And in 1990, he returned to another country, but this did not stop him from becoming one of the most successful managers of Russia.

The storyteller’s talent, a civil position, enormous knowledge and experience experienced a substantial and truly exciting. These are descriptions of the life of the Soviet colony: a housing in which the air conditioner is turned off in a 50-degree heat; football on the concrete site of the embassy; "Inevitable" thinness and Kuwaiti shopping. These are paintings by Saddami Iraq: with the features of the national automobile movement and the blood -chilling documentary television. These are thoughts about history, religion, politics and economics. And these are thoughts about the main thing - about the war and the world.
