Does it ever happen to you that your consciousness suddenly splits into two? One part remains directly in the body, and the second is transferred to a nearby creature. Having felt independence, both minds begin to have a leisurely conversation with each other on the most global topics, touching on very important strings of human life, while sweeping away everything vain and petty. Writer Gennady Taranenko, in his phantasmagoric stories, tries to describe just such incidents. They allow us to look at the world around us from the outside, inadvertently finding in it traces of phenomena of a higher order. New book “Mindcat. Phantasmagoric Stories" includes thirty stories. Ten of them are published for the first time, organically complementing the works from the author’s debut publication. Read, get acquainted with the intricacies of thoughts that suddenly appeared.
