Flame air. The story of one metamorphosis. Evseev B.T.

Boris Evseev finds such topics and such heroes that he most often does not have rivals in their description and development - these are artistic discoveries. They cannot be noticed. And therefore, Evseev is a laureate of the Bunin and Gorky Prizes, the Russian Government Prize for 2012, the finalist of the Big Book, the Russian Boker, Yasnaya Polyana.

Here is the novel “Flaming Air” is not just a lyrical grotesque and psychological drama, but also the only literary work dedicated to the mystery of the etheric wind. It would seem that ideas about him were preserved only in the textbooks of physics of the century before last. But no: a group of modern scientists with the help of the latest experiments is trying to return to the unraveling of this “fifth essence” of the material world. And it becomes clear: in the 21st century, we can no longer discount the forbidden or “uncomfortable” topics and alternative forms of knowledge.
