A completely prosperous city dweller, editor and publisher of newspapers, owner of three cats and a dog, fails in the publishing field, goes bankrupt and is forced to exchange comfortable city housing for a small rural house - without gas, water, toilet, radiators, without a bathroom, etc. familiar amenities. We need to learn to live again: light the stove, carry water in a bucket, do laundry in a basin, milk a goat, plant potatoes and bake bread. The heroine’s dog Dusya and cats Anfisa, Vasya and Sonya help her survive in difficult conditions. And, of course, love for everything that surrounds her. And the surrounding world - to her.
