Pandemia Sofiko, Nassim Taleb, Andrey Kurpatov, Tatyana Chernigov, Ai Weei, Helen Fisher, Aidan Salakhova and many other Russian and international leaders of opinion, were helped to understand the consequences of Pandemia. On the past. In Russia, it is not customary to talk about the future - this is difficult. It seems to many that building forecasts either naively, or provocatively, or stupid, or guaranteed to be pointless. Moreover, it is in conversations about the future that new meanings are born. It is in the plans for tomorrow that the image of the future, which we create with our own hands, is born. Sofiko is a rare journalist who is directed into the future who thinks about him, talks about him, worries about him. So, the future is behind her.

the author of the books “The whole Kremlin army” and “The empire must die”

this The book is primarily a lyrical diary of an ordinary person who is experiencing a completely extraordinary situation. In those events, hopes and fears that Sofiko writes about, it is easy for any reader to recognize himself: yes, we were just as worried about the health of loved ones, hurried to them through rapidly closing borders, canceled ready -made plans and built new ones, so that they later again They searched (and found) the most frightening symptoms, struggled with a suddenly falling sleep during the day, with insomnia at night and with anxiety at any time of the day, learned to work, make friends and fall in love in the zoom and tried to guess what awaits us further. Probably, someday on this book we can remember what happened to us at this strange time. An important and significant difference is that Sofiko Shevardnadze in this extraordinary situation was very unusual interlocutors: virologists and artists, economists and futurologists, Nobel laureates and authors of intellectual bestseller. And while the author lives these alarming months, the heroes of her interview explain what is happening to her - and with us.
