Love International. Soloukh S.

Sergey Soloukh - the name in Russian prose is known, his novels “Game in the box” and “Stories about animals” became the finalists of the “Big Book” Prize, and short stories three times part of the laureate list of the prize of the estate of Yuri Kazakov. The new Love International novel is unique in that he scared all those who had previously awarded Soloukha. The most stringent of the critics call Love International an evil pamphlet. The most favorable - the history of touching love. The polarity of opinions is explained by two parallel plot lines. On the one hand, a media person, a fraudster and a poser, and on the other, a modest employee in a small one for a professional circle of a well -known company. The paths of these two people out of two in ordinary life that are not in contact with the will of fate are suppressed and do not always reveal the attractive inside out of the world and the always amazing beauty of the human soul. The novel, which continues the traditions of the poetic grotesque Konstantin Vaginov, is primarily “Kozlina Song”, written in a metaphorical manner characteristic of Sergey Soloukhu, a sincere, fascinating, ridiculous and bitterness. And the courage of the one who does not save before this text is unusual for our modern literature will be rewarded as a hundredfold.
