The history of the literary process from the Sheremetev palace to sewing workshops. Arno S.I.

The book tells about the history of the city’s literary process on the Neva from 1990 to our days: the split of the Union of Writers of the USSR, the emergence of the Union of Writers of St. Petersburg, a fire in the writer’s house on Shpalenna, and the creation of a center of modern literature, which has become a refuge for writers of the city. The author writes about the writers with whom he had a chance to meet, whose names entered Russian and world literature, among them: Boris Strugatsky, Vadim Shefner, Alexander Zhitinsky, Vladimir Ufland, Ilya Fonyakov and others.
