"Poor Parrot, or the Youth of Pilate" is a recreation of the history of a great and corrupt empire, revealed by the author with shocking directness. Which easily allows the reader not only to be transported to that era, but also to find parallels with modern times. This is not only a continuation of the series “Sweet Spring Baccurots,” but also the life story of a boy, the future Procurator Pontius Pilate, begun by the author in the book “The Childhood of Pontius Pilate. Difficult Tuesday."
