Andrey Korf is an author who amazes with his wonderful Russian language, with which he describes a hidden and deliberately hidden area of human life. He calls his short literary sketches erotic sketches. However, what he writes about is related to erotic literature itself only by addressing this side of our existence, but it is not the main thing in his work. In our opinion, we are witnessing the emergence of a new literary style for describing “pictures from the exhibition of Life” as a whole. A characteristic feature of this style is a mosaic variety in the description from the sensually sublime to the grossly disgusting - one subject - our life. I hope that even now my sketches can help a lonely person, torn by internal demons, find a way out of his cell outside. Finally, I want to apologize to reader for the abundance of informal vocabulary, naturalism and sex in the sketches. I categorically forbid children under 16 from reading these stories - not only because of the swearing and sex, but also because of pessimism. In fact, dear children, everything in life is not as bad as described in these stories. They are only one, dark, side of the eternal “yin-yang” coin with which we pay for our existence throughout our lives.
