Leva's childhood. Minaev B.D.

“There are things that cannot be explained in the world, it cannot be explained,” notes Boris Minaev’s autobiographical hero of the stories. And indeed: how to explain the meaning of the damnly in the yard? The charm of the spring thawed earth with all sorts of unexpected finds? And how scary to stay at home alone or go to a dentist? Or an exciting pouring of passers -by from the balcony - well, who will understand this?

this will perfectly understand both the young and adult readers of "Childhood Leva". The author was surprisingly managed to preserve the children's perception of the world and convey it in the smallest details - funny and serious, touching and causing a piercing sense of nostalgia. The realities of childhood of the 1960s and early 1970s are adjacent to timeless and find a response to the heart of anyone who at least once walked in the courtyard of Demina, despite the wet mittens.
