Oblivion. Borovikov I.

The new story of the Moscow prose writer Ilya Borovikov is so unusual that it is difficult to tie it to a specific genre. Some readers will perceive it as an anti -utopia in the spirit of Orwell and Zamyatin, with others she will remind the fantastic works of the late Strugatsky. The alternative sterile world of the country of harmony in the name of the happiness of its citizens and its own stability is cleansed of everything that can cause negative emotions, painful experiences, unnecessary stress, but primarily from the main enemy of peaceful existence and trustworthy behavior - memory.

However, vague ghosts and disturbing dreams are born in her scorched, insensitive place. The main character of the story by them, the main character of the story, the vatel - “incomprehensible”, accidentally crosses the border between harmony and oblivion - the world, where the pain of the past is supplanted, where individual and collective memory, calling to the life of the ancestors, sprouts through the earth filled with terrible evidence distant war. Well, the hero has to go through his own paths of memories for the possible gaining himself.
