Elinor is a mysterious planet where the action of a new novel written by Pesach Amnuel takes place... Or maybe not by him? Maybe it’s not Amnuel who is the author of the novel, but Vladimir Berman, the main character of this work? Is it possible for a literary character to claim authorship? But this is still only a corner of the mystery - it suddenly turns out that the author of “The Invasion of Elinor” is not Amnuel or Berman, but someone hiding under the name Resovtsev. A man who committed suicide on the day Berman discovered a disk with the text of a novel he had not written. The knot of adventure and search is tightened tightly. Where does the path of insight lead? In what world do the adventures take place? What is Elinor's secret? The author (authors?) of the novel save the solution until the last page...
