What happens if the author suddenly meets his character? The glory of Arseny Platonov is a thing of the past. But one day a beautiful woman sits down next to him in a bar and declares that she is the heroine of the book that brought success to Platonov twenty years ago. She demands to write the last, final story about the adventures of a provincial girl who conquered the capital, and chooses VERY weighty arguments.

It looks like he won’t even have to come up with a plot for a new novel...
