Roadside Picnic. Illustrated publication with comments. Strugatsky A.N., Strugatsky B.N.

"Happiness for everyone, for nothing, and let no one leave offended!" - A phrase of perhaps the most popular novel by the Strugatsky brothers, cult for several generations. Together with her, in the “Picnic on the side of the road”, words such as “Stalker” and “Zone”, which became commonly used.

risking their lives, stalkers get artifacts from the zone - nothing more than cosmic garbage left by the aliens on Earth is just as empty bottles, banks and packaging remain on the sidelines on the sidelines on the side of the road. No one knows exactly what these artifacts are intended for, sometimes carrying a huge danger. Each stalker dreams of reaching a golden ball, which can fulfill the most secret desire.

In this commented publication with illustrations, we offer the reader again with Radric Shukhart to make a way along the zone to the Golden Ball.
