“Anti-policeman” Boris is a cynical, vile employee of a capital bank who dreams of wealth. His motto is “He who has money is always right.” Having developed a criminal plan to enrich himself, Boris begins to act. Given the simplicity of the plot and the brevity of the work, the author, looking into Boris’s past, describing the real events around him, provides readers with a whole kaleidoscope of human relationships. “Strangulation” Nina is a sweet young woman who came to rest in the south, thirsty for sex, satisfied her needs with all the men of the family , where she stopped for a while. This vacation ended tragically for Nina. In both works, the author gives readers the opportunity not only to observe what is happening, but also to look into the thoughts of the characters.
