A collection of small masterpieces of classical “women's prose”, again and again exploring the eternal problems of our lives. Here “To be or not to be?” turns into “To love or not to love?”, and from this already another question arises: “What to do?!” What to do with love - inappropriate, indecent and absurd in our days of universal rationality? What to do with the original, inescapable desire for ordinary happiness , about which every woman dreams? Victoria Tokareva does not offer answers. But maybe you yourself will find your personal answer in her stories?..
