The story of the seven hanged people. Andreev L.

Leonid Andreev is one of the brightest writers of the Silver Age. In his youth he suffered from lack of money and even starved. And everything that happens with writers is one way or another reflected in their work. Andreev - Like Lovecraft. Only without Ktulhu. Terrible characters are successfully replaced by... who would you think? Yes, people themselves who are worse than any monsters.

The collection includes works in which a person turns out to be a hostage to the situation, fate. The vice is compressed, forcing heroes to suffer from hatred, anger, helplessness. On the scales, life and death, reason weaken, and terrible, unsightly things rise from the depths of consciousness. Darkness is thickening - and either absorb a person, or will give him an exit to a new stage of awareness. But will the human mind cope with this “update”? The book is recommended to everyone who is fond of personality psychology and empathizes with the heroes.

The book includes the stories “Silence”, “No forgiveness”, “Darkness”, “Thought”, “Ghosts”, “Rules of good” and “Rules for good” and “ Suitcases ”, as well as the story“ The Life of Vasily Fiveo ”and“ The Story of the Seven hanged people. ”
