The hero of the novel, Ilya, the most ordinary “offender”, unexpectedly discovers that imagination changes the world around and, if desired, you can make it the way you want. Provocation, vandalism, mockery of the common sense of ordinary people become his path to understanding himself and the world around him. “Offenders” is an amazing mixture of counterculture, magic and the desire to expand the boundaries in which we are accustomed to living.
