Morok. Schukin M.N.

In this city, where the sun rarely shines, where instead of the sky only a smoky canopy is seen, a lot has mixed: times, people and fate. Here, the holy fool pronounces eternal truths, and “deprived”, rejecting “democratic values”, dream of will and seek to gain it by any means, even at the cost of their own life.

The action -eating novel of the “Moror” of the famous Siberian writer Mikhail Shchukin, Laureate of the National Literary Prize named after V.G. Rasputin, brightly and piercingly talks about the fact that false promises end in collapse. The novel “Name for the Son” and the story “Defense and Save” are dedicated to the Siberian outback and the recent Soviet past - in all the breaks and contradictions of that time.
