The twelve Chairs. Ilf I.A., Petrov E.P.

Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov’s novel “Twelve Chairs” is rightfully considered the standard of satire and humor.

The search for diamonds of Madame Petukhova, hidden in one of the chairs of a furniture set, is a story that still causes a sincere smile. The names of the heroes - charming adventurers - became household, and the novel himself divorced quotes, withstanding hundreds of successful reprints and deservedly gaining the glory of the unfading bestseller.
